If you are looking for a new trail to pedal or an old road to pedal again, circle May 5 on your calendar.
On May 5, the Nisqually Road to Paradise in Mount Rainier National Park will reopen for the first time since it was washed out by flooding on Nov. 6.
Also that day, a new trail will open in University Place called the Sound View Trail. The Sound View Trail is only 3.3 miles long, but it offers a unique chance to ride through a golf course and the trail does offer some hills. And the views are awesome.
