We rode the GAP from Cedar Creek Park to the Boston trailhead at the base of the Historic Boston Bridge and back. About 36 miles round trip. What a great ride. Smooth trail with lots of benches and several picnic areas and toilet facilities. Well maintained. Passed through several little communities along the trail. No major highways and very few little roads to cross making it very safe. Got a delicious huge “medium” size ice cream cone at the “Big Twist” in Blythedale, right off the trail. Highly recommend this ride!
We live near the trailhead at DeMoney/Grimes Funeral Home and bike the trail regularly. If you’re coming from out of town, you can park at Krogers. From this point the trail drops into Morsches’ Park, behind the YMCA, along the Blue River just south of town, and then all the way out to the Columbia City Schools. Part of the new expansion takes you through neighborhoods, but it’s still a dedicated bike trail and not simply a sidewalk with trail markers. Total length is approximately 15 miles if you don’t include a return trip. At no pointed are you required to hike/bike on a roadway.
Drove down from South Bend. Started at CR700 and rode to North Judson and back. Class 2 e-bikes. Nice, quiet trail. Maybe saw 10 people total. Decent shape for the most part. A few rough spots and low hanging vegetation. Plenty of shade. Didn’t venture into town this trip. Will definitely be back.
Ride Kokomo to Peru. Lots of shade areas. Relatively smooth.
It's a short but nice trail. Nothing really to see/do.
Ride day: Sunday July 12, 2026 We started at the Panhandle Trail Head at Country Road 50 N. Only real downed was the parking at the trail head. Only 3 spaces available and 2 were taken. Was a touch tricky, but we got it. We rode North through the town of Royal Center and on wards. After an hour give or take we turned to head back. The trail is perfect. Fairly straight trail with all kinds of wildlife and beautiful scenery all around. Only a few minor root bumps on the trail - but they were all marked. Even some rest rooms along the way! Will ride again without question - great trail.
The layout is a bit confusing at first and it's a mostly urban setting here but otherwise not too bad.
After parking at Gene Stratton Porter, we headed into Kendallville, and then rode back to Rome City. Even though not listed on the app, there is a section of new trail completed, a nice parking parea and a repair station at Gaff Park in Rome City. We followed the trail through the park down past the boat ramp and up to the business district. It was a great ride with restaurants at both ends of the trail
The trail is very narrow all throughout, so if you encounter a another bike rider, there's not a whole lot of room of maneuver in, so be careful.
It's also a bit rough until you get south of E Van Buren st, where it does get nice and smooth.
We rode from Abshire Park in Goshen to Middlebury. The scenery was beautiful. We ate in Middlebury at Hilltop Restaurant.
