Greenways Project




So, now that I'm back working in the "downtown-ish" area, I've been doing a lot of riding/training on the St. Louis Riverfront. This path is an amazing tribute to immeasurable dedication to revive and maintain a forgotten stretch of land. Team Revolution members meet in Lafayette Square on Tuesdays to enjoy Trailnet's supported ride. Read about it here. Or download the flyer here.

I've been riding from the Arch to the Chain of Rocks Bridge and while it's not a particularly beautiful stretch of land, the path is upkept and now well-marked and decorated with signs, sculptures, landscaping (although a bit sparse) and clean, graphic murals (nice, guys!).

I'd love to (and plan to) see more of the path(s). Get rolling!
