Letter: Saturday's trail ride offers a mix of past and the future for cyclists

For the past 15 years, Catonsville Rails To Trails (CRTT) has been working to convert old rail lines into bike/hike trails in an effort to promote healthy living and walkable neighborhoods through trail enhancements and pedestrian-friendly initiatives.

On Sunday, May 22, CRTT will coordinate a bike ride of the Catonsville Trail System, including the Number 8 Streetcar Path, Number 9 Trolley Trail and the partially completed Short Line Trail.

We will start and end at the Catonsville Farmer's Market, in the 700 block of Frederick Road, at 10 a.m. and the two-hour ride will cover 14 miles.

Go to our website at http://www.catonsvillerailstotrails.org.

Sign up for this free ride, then learn more about the existing and proposed Catonsville Trail System.
