White River Greenway (Noblesville)

Ebikes beware

November, 2025 by leatherhead913

If you plan on using your ebike on the short trail off of Potters Bridge we were advised by the locals that they are no longer permitted do to others abusing the trail. We were told the trail is being watched closely by authorities. We wanted to see the the bridge and ride to the Nickel Plate Trail.

Pumpkinvine Nature Trail

Fabulous!!!

November, 2025 by sfoxwpb

I went on two walks while visiting my mom in Topeka, this trail is beautiful and exactly what I needed. The first walk started in Shipshewanna (spelling?), my second walk I start at the parking lot located off of CR43. I look forward to more walks on future visits.

Milwaukee Road Transportation Trailway

fun ride, but a few parts of the trail were. bit rough

October, 2025 by rmcfarland1535

We started at the dam and it was hard to find the start as there was no markings to say this was the start of the trail we found as we were about to leave over to the right. From there the trail was great for about 9 miles but then the gravel became so big we were having a bit of trouble riding. But all in all a fun little trail with some cool bluffs and neat bridges

Big 4 Trail (Lebanon to Colfax)

Thorntown to the Sugar Creek Bridge

October, 2025 by tayers1

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.

Cardinal Greenway

Nice RT Richmond to Gaston

October, 2025 by eric.kristofic

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.

Nickel Plate Trail

Good trail, liner than expected

October, 2025 by peterdevity

This trail was very good, highly recommend for people. The gap in between has lots of areas to eat, so you can’t get hungry. Some of the fast food places and grocery stores are McDonald’s, Burger King, Wendy’s, Arby’s, Subway, Kroger, and ALDI. Just a note, this trail can reach around 10 miles farther than what the trail says, if you start at Fansler Park in Rochester. Very well paved, not many bumps. It would take about 25 miles to reach Peru, which is the middle town. The road section is pretty short, around 3-3.5 miles. From there, it will take you another 20-ish miles to reach the end. However, the end leads to another trail, which goes to a splash pad and some parks, great for the early summer and late spring. We visited in the fall, but you might have an even better experience in the warmer seasons.
