Ladies, please be careful out there on the trail. Just this week a 54 yr old mother was brutally attacked, raped & murdered. She normally rode on this trail 3 - 4 times a week by herself. This trail has always been relatively safe until now. Ride in groups or carry a weapon.

I used to think nothing of jumping on my bike & going for a solo ride but I won't be doing that anymore. :(
