Experience a fun-filled day of cycling on Indiana's longest paved rail trail system – the Cardinal Greenway.

Designed for all ages and cycling abilities, the GGT offers multiple route options departing from the Historic Wysor Street Depot, 700 E. Wysor Street, north to Jonesboro and south to the Losantville trailhead. Muncie's White River Greenway takes riders through the Minnetrista Cultural Center, to downtown Muncie along a cantilever bridge, and along the river to Yorktown.

GGT RidersStay on the Cardinal and White River Greenways for the entire tour or travel on marked county road routes south around Prairie Creek Reservoir or to the Sweetser Switch north of Marion.

Ride any distance 10, 20, 40, 80 or more than 100 miles with minimal distraction from road traffic. Most routes are out and back loops so you can customize your route to fit your style. Families find this tour a great first experience for young riders but veterans are equally challenged with the long route option.

Regardless of the route or distance you choose, you'll have the opportunity to visit city parks, traverse bridges, tunnel through underpasses, follow along rivers and take in the cultural sites and sounds of east central Indiana. Check us out on Facebook and see posts about the event and pictures from past GGT rides.
