Man O' War Trail
Sunday, March 12

The Man O' War Recreation Trail is a very new rail trail that currently runs 10 miles in Georgia from Pine Mountain to Hamilton, paralleling U.S. Hwy 27. It is all paved, 10-feet wide, and flat, with slight inclines and declines. Easy riding in pretty country, just outside of Callaway Gardens. Our out-and-back ride will be about 20 miles long.

It's named for both the famous race horse and the rail line that once ran from Columbus to Atlanta. Many of us hope it may one day be part of a trail including Columbus, Hamilton, Pine Mountain, LaGrange, Newnan, and Atlanta.

Meet near the trail head in downtown Pine Mountain. 

Date: Sunday, March 12.
Time: 10:00 AM Alabama Time, 11:00 AM Georgia Time. In honor of the Second Sunday Ride, Daylight Savings begins.
Road Conditions: All paved.
Bring: Water. Treasure for lunch if you like.
