Another training ride

Rode on the rail trail starting in Boston. I rode down to Mckeesport and back because I haven't ridden on that part of the trail in several years. It has been marked and paved after it crosses the Youghegheny river into Mckeesport. I rode down Walnut street past my old office which is no longer owned by the Telephone Company. I was surpised to see the Eagles building burned out. The Penn-McKee hotel is abandoned. The only bright spot was the Palisades has been updated and looked pretty good. I then rode back to Boston past Dead Man's Hollow where I used to go camping and hiking as a Boy Scout 50 years ago. It is now a protected park for hikers. I will have to go back some day. I then rode up to West Newton and back for a total of 36 miles.
