Default Hiawatha Trail :nervous:

Tomorrow my family and I are riding the Hiawatha Trail in northern Idaho. Has anyone ridden it before?

I'm excited for it. I'm hoping everything goes well and we can finish it though(My brother has Down Syndrome and gets tired kinda easily). I'm going to try to bring my camera and take lots of pictures.
My sister just got a new bike for this (Schwinn :nervous: The 'new' crappier schwinns) and everyone else(But me) are riding 13 year old Huffys. :reechy:
I'm rockin a 2001 Schwinn GSX.

We did the 18 mile one. It was a blast. I ended up riding about 22-24 miles total. Man my legs are tired now. Plus my tendonitis is hitting really hard. My pinky was numb for most of the day and hurting like a biatch the rest.

My pugginess.

I was hardcore dirty. My sister and I had to fly through the beginning 2.5 mile tunnel twice to get something to fix my dads glasses that broke.
It was so beautiful along the trail.

Myself getting ready to ride.


We had a blast. Some of you might remember that my brother has Down Syndrome and has been really sad the past year(Don't know why. He just gets angry and upset). This was the happiest any of us has seen him in the past year. It was good to see that in him again.

Oh. The Hiawatha Trail is a trail that used to be one of the most scenic train rides in the country before it went bankrupt and closed down. They're opening more and more of the trail as they complete it. It will be like 47 miles long in the end.
