Because it hugs the edge of Mitchell Lake, you can expect to see some cool sights. When the weather is nice, you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll see seasonal birds, lakeside wildlife and healthy vegetation. This greenway has paved areas, so it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s perfect for someone who prefers paved rides to rough terrain rides. &#8230;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/dirtsidesisters.org\/event-3753497\">RESCHEDULED &#8211; 2ND ANNUAL TRAIL HOPPING WINTER SHAKEDOWN | ALEDO AND QUANAH HILL<\/a><\/h2>\n<h3>dirtsidesisters.org<\/h3>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dirtsidesisters.org\/resources\/Pictures\/FB%2520Cover%2520Photos\/2020\/Trail-Hopping-Winter-Shakedown-RESCHEDULED.png?w=1200&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<p>When 16 Feb 2020  10:30 AM &#8211; 4:00 PM\nLocation Aledo Trail | 302 Point Vista Drive, Aledo, TX 76608 | Quanah Hill | 229-499 W Lake Dr, Weatherford, TX 76087\nJoin us for our 2nd Annual Trail Hopping Winter Shakedown!!
