Rivertrail Portland update Apr 20

[hogboy]

umm, all open. highway to hell intact


peeps, this thing is WAY better than it was last
year. the flood mixed some sand in the muddy
sections of 2 and 3, so now they are dry as a bone !

all bridges replaced except the first one on 3, you
need to pedal down riverside street past WM
and duck in behind the tree farm.

all systems GO ! on all 3 sections. all 11 miles one-way


if you have never done the river trail, you are certainly
missing out on one of the best trail systems (3 pieces)
in the entire East Coast. it blows away most anything you
can compare it to. there are some new sinkholes you
ride right on the edge of with 15 foot drops. sweet

To bad there is poison ivy everywhere. Seems only good to ride it in early spring or late fall.

[hogboy]

poison ivy only on a few sections and only if you
fall in it which is unlikely

and this is different than any other trail ?

Agreed, show me a trail in southern New England that isn't racked with the dreaded PI.
