Allegheny River Trail
Has anyone ridden the Allegheny River trail up north? It looks quite nice between Franklin and Emlenton at least. A very nice stretch of river, an ASPHALT-PAVED trail, not just one, but TWO tunnels. I was on the river, but I got a chance to beach the canoe and walk through the Kennerdell Tunnel. Very nice. Not lighted, for extra spookiness (but the reflectors in the trail do a nice job). I saw lots of cyclers.

RE: Allegheny River Trail
I have been on that trail in certain places around Emlenton all the way down to Brady's Bend. From emlenton following the river south, you run smack dab into a nice winery in Foxburg that makes a great stop.
From there to Brady's Bend I am not 100% sure how the trail is as I have mostly canoed or rafted the river along that stretch, and biked on the opposite side of the river from the trail.
