12 & 26 Mile Bike Rides

FINALLY A NEW POST!

On Labor Day we took a 12-mile bike ride from Wilton to Norwalk on the Elroy-Sparta Bike Trail through tunnel #2. We rode to and walked through the frist tunnel last year.









Today we finished the Elroy-Sparta bike trail. We rode 26 miles from Norwalk to Sparta and back. We finally made it through tunnel #3 which is 3/4 of a mile long. Everyone has to walk their bike through the tunnel and you hope you have a bike light or flashlight with you. It gets very dark in the tunnel. Tunnel #3 has a lot of dripping water (like it's raining most of the trip through the tunnel). We hope to take a couple of more rides as the fall colors start to appear.
