Monon Trail - Indianapolis
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 сер 2024
- This is a full ride from the 96th street trailhead to the northern end of the Monon Trail in Sheridan, Indiana. This is one of those must do trails. We rode our recumbent trikes as usual and ended up with 38 miles this day. You can extend your mileage easily to around 50, if you ride South from 96th street toward downtown Indy and back. There are some nice places to eat in Carmel. That area is the most upscale section of the trail also.
I frequently ride this trail. You made a great video of it.
We wish we could ride this one everyday. It is a great asset for those living nearby.
Really enjoy the video, thats a really nice trail! Thanks for taking us along!😊
Glad you enjoyed it
That’s my home trail I live in Carmel, Indiana. We have a lovely trail and Park system. ❤ 🚲
1:00 "...going out of town may be alright..." Yes, for what it's worth, the Monon Trail is not dead-level. It slopes very slightly, but perceptibly, from north(higher) to south (lower), on average. You departed from the 96th street trailhead, going north (up-grade), you will have the wind in your face, but a mostly downhill run on your return trip. I hope you enjoyed your trip.
Sheridan is 230 feet higher than Broad Ripple White River bridge
I love riding the Monon. I have recorded so many hours riding this and the Vandalia Trail. When you talk about people not speaking, it is true. However you have to look at it in a different view. Many people don't speak because it is a "mind your business" attitude. People from the South don't understand it, but people from Big Cities, this is typical.
Nice video. I love that trail. It's funny you mentioned people not speaking. That annoys the hell out of me. I'm happy to know it's not just me who notices. I live in Ohio and the people are the same here, as if they wake up pissed off every morning. Lol!!
Is there a way to stop the echo of the radios.. I wounder
Echo?
Volume on his radio to high
Wow! Another one! Sweet! Isn't Carmel that town that has the most round abouts in the US instead of traffic lights?
There are quite a few round abouts. This will likely be the last video for a while. Depends on the outcome of some medical issues.
Yes it has claimed that. I lived in the area for years before all the roundabouts were put in. The Monon is one of my favorite trails to ride and walk
I live here and we do have tons of roundabouts!
Thank You Mayor Brainard for the forward looking traffic safety designs.
great video footage. Don't get me wrong but your wife sounds like she is talking in a bathroom. Also I can here a radio in the background. have you one or is it the two way volume to high.
Great Video! What communication system o are you using between riders?
Thanks.

How long is this trail?
The entire trail is 27 miles one way. We covered the northern most 17 miles in this video.
At 34:50 when you quoted what your wife said was that a reference to 101 Dalmatians ?
You got it. 😃
with i had bike trails like that where i live in upstate ny . trying to get the anyone in to do anything is like pulling teeth . i don't drive i love riding bike .
On average, we drive anywhere between 2 to 3 hours for a lot of these rides. Having a trail nearby is a great asset.
The Monon is THE best... Louisville Loop East side: Second! Great vid!
