Newbie says "hi"
Hi,
I'm a mom of 3 and would like to start our family biking. We've done part of the Montour trail, the trail past the jail and Ohio Pyle. I'm just not sure where else to bike with a 13, 11, and 5 (who's on a bike connected to mine). Any suggestions of easy rides for us? We live in Greentree.
Thanks,
Lisa

RE: Newbie
You could start out in little Boston and bike to say the Dravo cemetery. It's about 5 miles one way on the Yough. trail. Its a nice easy ride and you could pack a lunch for when you get to where your going. Lots of old head stones in that cemetery, you could also get on the trails down by the stadiums too which are flat rail trails as well.

to cedar creek park- have a picnic etc and then ride back- lots of fun.. its wonderful that you're starting your kids off on these family rides- my daughter(23 yo) still goes bike riding with me its some of the best times we've had
