Super windy this week. Tree down covering trail at Malvern so we went the other direction. Lots of twigs and branches down that way too. Ride with caution.
I was on the MoMac Trail East this morning. It was easy to find. The parking spot was adjacent to a bathroom. The weather was perfect. And the scenery was magnificent. I wish I was here for longer so I could do more of it! What a blessing!
If you take it do it from Peru to Brownsville. I did it from Neb City all the way to Brownsville and the first part was not maintained at all and then a boring 5 miles thru a farm. In Peru they have a nice bathroon if it was open. I get real mad knowing these trail town get money to maintain this stuff yet allot do nothing especially in Nebraska. Once again no trash cans, bathrooms and honestly except Brownsville no real towns to speak of and it was a long ride when you have to do it there and back. I think Peru to Brownsville if fixed up and maintained could host some cool biking events and add some running events in it. Its got some nice views.
Ok section, kind of dull. Agriculture & cows. Found a bit of shade by a grain elevator for lunch. Several washouts filled with tumbleweeds as you get closer to Lind.
Went from Peru to Brownville. Definitely more utilized than Brownville to end.
As the title says, the trail itself feels a little bit utilitarian. I probably wouldn’t pick this one to go on a fun leisurely ride. That said, I’m very glad this is here, because I don’t want to ride in the road and I hate riding sidewalks. There are times when you need to take this direction to get to places, whether they be stores like The Home Depot near 27th and Superior, or other trails like Highland Loop or Dietrich Connector. I also appreciate this trail is paved.
We started in Akron and rode about 18 miles north. Loved it!!!
Mostly wooded with few road crossings. Storm damage has been cleared. Very pleasant walk from north end on Leavenworth to Vinton Street. Mostly walkers and a couple bikers. Some benches.
We ( recumbent trike & e-bike) headed West from the Kiwanis park. Turned around after 9km as the surface was really tough on the trike. There’s 2 good wheel tracks for bikes, but the trike had to ride partially in the coarse trail ballast. Scenic area with farm views and a huge windmill farm in the distance.
You need to take this trail off the app. The worst trail in America may be the world. God bless you all.
We are RVers and were staying at the Sandhills Global Event Center at North 84th and Fremont. The Murdock Trail was right behind the event center so we decided to take a ride. There is an entrance to the trail from the west campground. We have hybrid bikes.
We headed west on the trail. The first section of the trail from the event center to the 84th Street overpass was limestone surface. Some of the surface was fine but there were sections that were deeply rutted, muddy and deep limestone to the point of being annoying and unsafe if cycling too fast. As we continued on the surface improved.
We continued on and connected to the John Dietrich Bikeway.
Overall, the Murdock Trail was OK; nothing special. Flat, partially shaded, through residential and industrial areas but it was good to get out and enjoy the sunny day.
