Minneapolis has interconnected bicycling and ski trails around the lakes. We have trails by the Red River which provide running, bicycling, and skiing trails during much of the year. If it were possible to interconnect these with the railroad beds which are planned for obsolescence, Fargo would get a high-quality chain of recreational trails that could make it safer to bicycle, ski, and run (instead of relying upon safe driving). It would increase the possibility of bicycle commuting, and even open the possibility for ski commuting in the winter.
