Rode the entire trail and its paved and an easy 7 mile ride. Park at the Iron Horse Church on Chicot and its pretty easy and seemed safe for the area. No creepy questionable characters around. Just be mindful of crossing several main roads, there are signals to activate but they are still major roads. Went to the Saline/Pulaski line at the southernmost part and looks like they are extending this into Alexander.
