The Thorntown parks and recreation dept needs to step it up a notch on this section of the trail. The bumps are so significant it jars my teeth and nearly throws me off the bike. Most of the rest of the trail from Lebanon to Colfax is just fine.
There was some work done on the 1 1/2 mile section just out of Lebanon, which is now relatively smooth. Thorntown needs to fix that one or two sections. The one just after the street cross-over bridge coming into Thorntown and then the most horrible section from Thorntown to the bridge crossing over the river. That section is bone jarring.
A few days ago we rode round trip from Richmond to Gaston, stopping for an overnight in Muncie. Overall it's a really nice trail. The only knock is that it starts to approach the "tunnel of trees"- pretty much that and farmland. Suggest taking a little detour to the Prairie Creek Reservoir area.
Pluses: a consistent, wide trail that is generally well maintained with a lot of rest stops, clean bathrooms, & shelters. Minuses: there are a few sections with cracked pavement, but they are well marked; created our own detour around the I-70 closure on-road.
A shout out to Dan at cycling and fitness Warehouse to letting us leave our car there overnight. It would be nice if the trail organizers came up with a safe spot at City Hall or something similar.
Note there is no closure at railroad bridge in Richmond. Only I-70.
The Panhandle Pathway is a beautiful and expanding trail--with the most recent addition being northward through Winamac. The Friends of the Panhandle Pathway are collaborating with the Prairie Trails Club, supporters of the Erie Trail (including the Great American Rail Trail and American Discovery Trail), on defining a backroads share-the-road asphalt connector between the two non-motorized and walker routes.
I rode this trail south from the Muncie Depot, on 9/18/25. 2 blocks south the trail was diverted onto side streets due to construction of a new overpass. No apparent detour signs going south, so I had a bit of a time finding my way. This trail is ok, but showing signs of ageing, with numerous bad cracks in the pavement that need some attention. I would advise riding north from the depot until construction is finished (maybe late 2026?). Depot has bathroom and a gift shop.
loved riding this trail (except for the crowds on the trail for Carmel Days). My only complaint was the poorly placed trail marker where the trail made a hard right turn north of Carmel near Rt 32. The bathroom facility at 96th Street was outstanding.
Colfax to Sugar Creek nice and smooth, from Suram Plant rd to Lebanon nice and smooth! The section maintained by Thorntown has trees over growing the trail and many many bumps . The trail needs a repaving. Thorntown section runs from Sugar Creek to Suram plant rd. I called the Thorntown,s clerks office (only open Tuesday) and reported the problem. They said trees removal will be next week Issue back by September
We parked at the 69th Street Trailhead. We went north & it was a shady and a scenic ride. Carmel had restaurants next to the trail. Lots of walkers, cycles, & dogs. Very nice trail.
The final section of this trail along the wabash river on the west side was officially completed first week of August…the trail is now a complete “circle” and just under 7 miles in length.
My husband and I rode this trail on 8-22-25. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and thought the trail was relatively well maintained. Some have complained about branches and rough surfaces but we did not find it bad at all. We are used to riding country roads in much worse conditions. We rode to Colfax and stopped to enjoy a meal at Pizza King. I highly recommend this stop! It had a small town friendliness and great service. We enjoyed a sub sandwich, salad, breadsticks, and milkshake. The breadsticks were outstanding as well as the handcrafted shakes- so many flavors from which to choose. We split the buckeye shake and it was delicious!
On my way from PA to WI I decided to stop in Indianapolis, IN. I decided to ride the Monon Trail to the Cultural Trail in downtown, to the Canal Walk and reverse. I absolutely loved the ride, enjoyed riding through the city, and really liked all the murals and art as I was riding. As I was riding south and getting closer to downtown Indianapolis, there were a lot of road crossings, however I will say this was one of the most courteous places to bike, almost every car stopped to let bikers cross. If I ever come back to Indianapolis I would definitely ride this trail again. It is in one of my top 5 trails. Definitely worth doing if you are in Indianapolis.
