Here at Tinker AFB in OKC, they have a really nice walking/jogging/biking trail, which loops through various parts of the base for 3.3 miles. With the heat of summer, plus one of our bikes being out of broke, our biking has been alittle hampered. I finally got the bike up and running and along with the cooler temps, it's perfect biking weather. We have been trying to get out each day and do the trail.
There are several benches placed along the way for your sitting pleasure and the entire path is paved.
The path crosses several small seasonal streams and is mostly shaded by the wooded area it goes through.
Of course being on a military base, there is your occasional detour, something about bullets wizzing over your head can put a damper on your fun.....lol
The base also boast a wildlife sanctuary, with several ponds and paths, located along the trail. No biking here though, strictly for walking and enjoying.
The added benefit, is the exercise we have been getting or attempting to get in a little better shape. So if you ever find yourself at the Tinker FamCamp, take a spin or walk along the trail, it runs right by the campground and is well worth the trip.
A few bullets whizzing over your head would be good for getting your heart rate up. And that's supposed to be good for you. ;c)
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great trail to ride, we'll have to check that out one of these days because we enjoy the FamCamps.

Guess those bullets overhead could also make you walk/jog/bike faster, giving you a really good workout! :-)
ReplyDeleteNice trail!
Looks like a great place, I think we are going through there next spring, looks like it would be a good stop.
