Men working on Creekside
The telephone cable people are out working, on Creekside and
the Old Mill road area. Rode thur there this moring, and they had trucks, and a backhoe, moving, close to the bikeway. There was also a lot of men, walking around and not
looking were they were, going. Had one walk outon the bikeway, just in front of me. So be careful. The rest of the creekside, is clear, without any trouble
work on creekside! today.
Just recived a e-mail, fron the greene parks, that they are going to be out on Creekside, today, fixing the bollars. The
ones that are knocked over. So be on the watch for trucks on the path. Also I have noticed in the last few days, walnut, are starting to drop, watch out they can be bas if you hit one.
Low hanging limb in YS
Just as you get to Yellow Springs via the trail, there’s a low hanging limb blocking the trail. You may be able to duck under, but probably will be better riding around it in the grass. I’m sure the crew will be out to take care of it soon, but be careful in the meantime.
Simon Kenton Trail
As of Aug 1, 2008 other than dried leaves on the trail close to Urbana, no problems all the way to Springfield. Apparently branches have been removed. Raspberries are starting to ripen, birds were feasting, two groundhogs noted outside of the trucking school along the trail. Nice ride, used two bottles of Gatorade during round trip.
