Great Western Trail -Eastern Portion


The Great Western Trail, like the Illinois Prairie Path, is a "rail-to-trail." Old abandoned rail lines from the de-industrialization of the United States are being repurposed this way -a good thing.  Check out Rails To Trails Conservancy at RailsToTrails.Org.


Lots of day rides, Elgin, Geneva, Aurora...


Crossing Route 83...







Stopped by the DuPage County Airport...
