"Metro Parks staff puts priority on plowing bike paths"
While those of us who drive to and from work have been stuck in slushy stop-and-go traffic for much of this winter, Keith Mayton has cruised with little other company on his morning and afternoon commutes.
The federal-court clerk rides on studded bicycle tires each morning, no matter the weather, from Worthington to Downtown on the Olentangy Trail.
Not that the trail has been sloppy. “You can pretty much ride through it,” he said.
That’s because Metro Parks quickly clears 38 miles of paved paths after every snow accumulation, said Larry Peck, the system’s deputy director.
In the meantime my wife had to use a snow shovel to dig her car out of our court because we haven't seen a snow plow.... :banghead:
