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.
