Redbank Trail – East Brady-Brookville-East Brady – 93 miles
July 16, 2022 @ 7:30 am - 5:00 pm
FreeRide the Redbank Trail from East Brady to Brookville and back. I am thinking a restaurant stop for lunch. I am thinking the Courthouse Grill and Pub in Brookville (halfway point). Or at Zack’s Local Farm to Table Restaurant in South Bethlehem (3/4 point). Has a tunnel so bring a headlight. Travel time to East Brady 1:10 for me
The Redbank Trail is quite a gem. The first half is very remote (so much so there are sections without cell coverage). Trail surface is crushed limestone, but was good last year. Only resources are in New Bethlehem and Brookville.
My pace will be brisk. My trail average is around 14-15 mph. Given this is a trail, people are welcome to ride their own pace. What happened last year is that the group rode out together. Then people rode their own pace back as the miles sunk in.
Another option is that you ride to South Bethlehem and back, cutting the distance about in half. You get the most remote part of the trail.
