Shoal Creek Greenbelt
The Shoal Creek Greenbelt is not surprising by any accounts, but it is convenient. It's the main artery through town from my house to Town Lake. That's enough of a reason to ride it. The greenbelt is basically a jogging path from about 38th street down to the lake. Currently it is under some construction - there has been damage from floods in the past. | |||||||||
