Go inside the Tacoma cycling scene

If you want to ride on a killer paved urban trail, check this one out.
John Keates, Mason County's Parks Director, e-mailed today to offer his favorite after reading today's bike trail stories.

Keates, who hopes to develop a trail system for Mason County, says the Trail of the Couer d'Alenes is worth the drive. The 70-mile trail traverses most of the Idaho panhandle offering a longer cycling route than anything the South Sound has to offer right now.

Check out these links with info on the trail:
