Riding the Great River Trail - From Cordova to rapid City,IL 8-25-13

We decided it was time to get back to the Great River trail, so we drove over to Cordova, IL and parked the car and headed south.

They have some unique sign posts along this section


All of them are bike parts adorning the posts



The path runs along the highway for most of the distance to Rapids City



Coming into Port Byron, IL


There is a great parking lot along the highway, it is Shady.


Not long after you pass Shady Grove you will come to I-80 as it crosses the Mississippi.


Just past I-80 we turned around for our return trip.

  1. Love the pictures....we drove up the Port Byron side of the river in August - when we came up for Dad's funeral. Said to Mike that the bike path looks like a great ride.
