Nickel Plate Trail:
Miles
informed the club that the trail would receive a $250,000 grant thru the DNR
from an Eli Lilly endowment.
One reason the Nickel Plate was selected is that the state wants to see
quick results.
A goal of our governor is to have a trail within 15 miles of 80% of the
population by 2020.
The trail will extend south into Howard County ½ mile.
Funds have been collected for the Bunker Hill Bridge to be completed next
year.
Regular club rides:
Terminated
until March 2008.
Cyclists are encouraged to contact others for an impromptu ride as
weather and schedule permits.
