Manhattan Linear Trail -- Manhattan, KS

Another gorgeous 80-degree weekend day, another 16 mile bike ride!

(With weather like this, can this really be the last weekend in October?)

The first 8 miles was into a pretty stiff Kansas wind, so we got a good workout!

It's not really the most scenic trail. This portion is basically riding along the top of the levee parelleling right along both the RR tracks and Tuttle Creek Blvd.

Being able to get close enough to the Art Deco bridge footings from the original bridge is pretty cool, though.

And the literally hundreds of swallow nests built on the lip of the existing bridge deck.
