Regarding the Yuma Crossing Trail. I found an excellent Scenic Trail along the Colorado River just under 2 miles long. Starting below Yuma Territorial Prison Historical State Park under the RR Bridge at a boat launch N32.72807 W114.61574 to John Henry Memorial Park N32.72864 W114.64762. I accessed both Trails by parking at West Wetlands Park at North end of N 12th Ave, N32.72942 W114.63467. Then pedaled a short distance east on the Yuma Crossing Trail to the East Main Canal Bike Path at N32.72780 W114.63217, this excellent asphalt trail goes south for 5.9 miles, several grade level crossing at Stop Signs or Lights. One underpass at Hwy 95. One short dirt section both sides W32nd St crossing, (no light or stop sign). Ends at W 40th St. N32.65490 W114.63897.

This bike path is actually 7.5 miles. It begins on 1st Street and Madison Ave and continues through 40th Street. Good place to ride for beginners.
