Great Lakes - Central Indiana Cyclists check in here!

Lafayette, Indiana for me!:D

Hangin' on the West Side.

Hello, Angus! As in WL?

I'm in Bloomington! Hi!

While I am living in Elgin right now I do have family in Carmel, used to live in Bloomington, and went to college in West Laffalot (best damn decade of my life). I make it through the area a lot, and have done the RAIN ride 2 years in a row. Keep me in mind if you guys are setting up anything in the area.

Valparaiso.

I've never done any riding in central Indiana, any reccomendations?

Another Bloomingtonian here. Hi!

A soon-to-be Bloomington resident here. My fiancee was just hired by the IU library, and I will be moving up with her. The best part is that I don't have a job there yet, so I get plenty of time to ride my bike before I get full-time employment. Whee!!!

Alexandria. Middle of nowhere. Good riding though! :D

Hello, Angus! As in WL?

Yeah, in fact I grew up in the Gaston area near 28 & 69 and my husband is from Selma so we travel through Alexandria all the time to visit his family. I've been thinking about catching the trail in Gaston and taking it to his grandparents house which is south of Muncie on 35. I saw you did that ride and wondered how you liked it.

Kind of late, but welcome to Bloomington and hope you're enjoying the rides around here!

I'm the bum he rode with and the trail is really nice. One bottleneck from traffic at a crossing in Muncie, but really nice otherwise. It's also convenient to food, etc!:D

I live just West of Alexandria in the new housing development just off of Highway 28. I can see the highway from my back window.

I ride the trail all the time and love it. Like Tom said, Muncie will slow you down especially at McGalliard Road but the rest goes through the country side and it's smooth sailing. I've done the complete trail and it's 27 miles long one way.

Where do you ride in Carmel?

I start at home (126th & Rangeline) and have a common loop that runs east to Adios Pass, across 151st or 156th to Hazel Dell to 116th to Rangeline and home. I'll also follow the HCAT Bike Route signs that runs east/west up to 161st and over to Cherry Tree. I've also got a great route that cuts across 106th to the Traders Point area to hit the hills north of Eagle Creek. I may actually do that route tomorrow (1/26) at 10am or so....

Where do you generally ride?

I have unlimited access to county roads. They can be a bit rough in some spots and you get chased by dogs routinely. I also ride the Cardinal Greenway.

We have probably passed each other. I start at Gaston and ride South. I've gone the complete length of the trail all the way to Losantville.

What bike do you have?

I ride a Fuji Roubaix.

Let me know if you want to ride together sometime.

I'm planning on doing the Sat. morning ride from the Depot (Wysor St.)

Muncie, Indiana

About a half mile from where the Greenway has the misfortune of crossing McGalliard.

This is the bike you will see me on when I'm on the Greenway.



I also rode a Trek but I just tore it down for a new build.

Muncie, Indiana

About a half mile from where the Greenway has the misfortune of crossing McGalliard.

It is definetley a problem. I just avoid McGalliard by starting at the parking lot right off of it so I don't have to cross it (I have many times when I went South towards the depot). I go North which is good for a 18 mile round trip. Most of the roads that intersect the Greenway at that point are low traffic.
