Thinking of Deadwood

My Deadwood half marathon is quickly approaching but lately I've been thinking more about riding the Mickelson Trail on a bike than running it. The George S Mickelson Trail is 110 miles in length and goes from Deadwood to Edgemont. It was built along the old BN rail route and traverses the Black Hills region linking several of the Black Hills mountain communities. The path is crushed limestone and the trail offers spectacular views along the route. I would enjoy taking several days to ride the trail stopping along the way to enjoy the mountain towns.



Something to think about at least....
