Bike Pic Nov 22, fun Sunday memories

“Fun Sunday Memories shows a photo of two ladies having the time of their life on the Minneapolis Midtown Greenway, this last summer.

The Greenway,  is a 5.5-mile long former railroad corridor in south Minneapolis with bicycling and walking trails.  It is owned by the Hennepin County Regional Railroad Authority and the trails are maintained by the City of Minneapolis.

For most of its distance across the city, the corridor is grade-separated from the street grid, either in a gorge passing under bridges carrying streets overhead, or on a levy with traffic passing underneath it.  This offers barrier-free bicycling that can make cross-town trips faster than going by car.

To the west, the Greenway connects with paths around the Minneapolis Chain of Lakes and the Southwest LRT Trail extending to the western suburbs. To the east, the Greenway connects with paths along the Mississippi River.
