A New 4,000 Mile Coast to Coast Bike Trail Is Coming
If you’d love to see the United States in the greenest way possible, there soon will be a new 4,000-mile bike trail that will take you across the entire fruited plain.
Setting off in the nation’s capital, riders can travel through 12 states along The Great American Rail Trail, eventually reaching Washington in the Pacific Northwest.
Rails-to-Trails Conservancy is currently working on the project, which is only about half completed, but they will release the full route this spring.
Keith Laughlin, RTC’s president, calls the vision, “the single greatest trail project in the history of the U.S.”
