Fort Cherry to Westland Branch ( no trains)

I biked 13.7 miles today on my Ozark Trail G.1 Explorer bike.

✨ About this Ride

Riding across the McDonald Trestle is always fun! I made it to the Westland Branch from W-0. I biked the first two miles of the branch. Portions of it are rather sandy. Portions of it are single-track and feel a bit narrow. It’s all worth it for the chance to bike near a train.

I rode on a borrowed bike since all of my bikes need to go to the shop. While the traditional handlebars are comfortable, I do miss the drop bars on my normal bike.

I took a brief walk in the area after my bike ride.
