It doesn’t “open this weekend”.

It opened last weekend.

Keep the ****ing E-bikes off it and in church parking lots where they belong!

Two lanes, and traffic will be backed up for miles.

The new Woodward to Perry stretch (approx 10 miles) is a really nice trip. Plenty of intermittent tree cover. A bar in Bouton half way through.
