The Randall Parkway Trail ride was very rejuvenating! I hadn’t been on a ride in a couple of weeks and needed one badly. It was good to be out on a wide trail that walkers, runners and cyclists could share without fear of running into each other. The trail was a bit challenging as it was a bit hilly just slightly but gave my calves a workout. I didn’t like that I had to cross a somewhat busy street from the trail parking lot that had no crossing lights to stop the traffic for me. I had to take a chance of not getting hit.
It is a very smooth ride on this trail. It is just long enough for a “getting back to riding” trip that you won’t be too sore the next day. The height of the trail from the levee is a bit scary but well worth the ride. There are a few industrial businesses along the route which helps break up the ride. Unfortunately, There is one major road that you need to cross which drivers will not heed to bikers.
The first portion of this trail is closed down for construction. Once you get past the sports complex, however, the rest of the trail is beautiful, diverse, with places to stop and eat at a restaurant along the Black Warrior River, enjoy a picnic, or just rest and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Spectacular ride today!
Great walking trail. There was beautiful fall leaves all around. Great activities along the way for children to do.
