Biking
Sunday, November 8
Pocono Bike Train
Hop on the bike train and step back in time. Enjoy a relaxing 25 mile train ride through the Lehigh Gorge. Then pedal your bike back down to Jim Thorpe, PA at your own pace along the scenic Lehigh Gorge Rail Trail. You can head up that morning or make a weekend of it by leaving Saturday and staying overnight at one of several lodges and hotels (e.g., The Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, 1619 Interchange Rd., Lehighton, PA 18235) near Jim Thorpe. John Moffatt and Janet McGarrigle are your hosts but you have to contact the Blue Mountain and Northern Railroad directly at 570-325-8485. Date is November 8 at 9 AM. Cost with your own bike is $35 (or $55 with a rental). The address in Jim Thorpe is 7 Hazard Square, Jim Thorpe, PA 18229. Be sure to print your reservation and bring it with you. (For a box lunch on Sunday, call Renee's Cold Cut Hut at 570-215-0057.)
