      No bathrooms are available along the rail lines for this experience.
      You go before or after or you find a friendly tree or bush at the turn around point!

    Were is this? How long was the ride? What happens if you get tired from peddling? Reason I ask have a friend who had a heart attack and would like to take him to do this. I just dont want to be the only one to have to peddle if she to tired..

      One of the pedals is electric and it gives you a boost so it’s not as hard. And it’s in Versailles, KY which is just West of Lexington, KY. And if your the only person peddling I would choose the electric one because it does not make you very tired.

      @railfansouth  22 дні тому +1

      Since one of the pedals is electric and will give you a boost it’s not that hard to do it. But if your kid wants to pedal but his legs can’t reach you can scoot your chair forward so he can reach or if you need to push it back you can also.
