@rasterweb not worth it. Maybe time to explore Locust or Chambers towards Mount Mary, so you can hop on the Oak Leaf on the Parkway?

@mathiasx Ah, it's the Menomonee Line I guess? (I'm sort of cluless.)

@rasterweb the “transit” maps are terrible for knowing exactly where the Oak Leaf is. I go off google maps and figuring it out based on the actual signs as I pass them.

@rasterweb ah that isn’t the old map — at least that says whether it is a path or on the street!

This is the old bad map that I was thinking of: https://county.milwaukee.gov/County-Files/Parks-Department/Photo-Gallery/Explore/Trails/2021-OLT-parksexplorer18x241.pdf

@mathiasx Oh yeah, I saw that map as well and it seemed somewhat useless.

@mathiasx Is the Menomonee River Parkway the Oak Leaf Trail? Do I ride on it?

@mathiasx Ha! Did you see Sunday's ride? I got to the Menomonee River Parkway but do I still ride on the road with cars? There wasn't a bike lane, just a wide sidewalk but I don't ride on the sidewalk, do I?

Next weekend I'll try to go further on the parkway if I can.

@mathiasx Also I "accidentally" went to Appleton Avenue. I just did my normal cemetery ride but then went past and onto streets and ended up a little too close to Appleton & Capitol.
