Joseph, please accept my sincere apology. I had a flat on my way to the trailhead and by the time I got it taken care of I was extremely late. I hope you and anyone else that Made it today were able to go ahead and enjoy the ride.

That's great! I rode it too, but it ended up being much later than anticipated. Turns out my mileage was a bit off, but you're right: the weather was outstanding!

Good Afternoon, Can you give me a shout out if you are definitely riding tomorrow morning? I'd like to get a head count. Thank you! Also, do you prefer to ride as a group or do you want to ride the route on your own?

Just an FYI, Part of the blacklick Creek Trail is dirt.

Hi Joseph, The only part I'm aware of that is dirt is a small section under the railroad tracks off of Portman Park, but we are not going that way and instead heading south to Pickerington Pond. Pickerington Ponds is a great stopping point because it has real bathrooms and a drinking fountain. Karen
