View Full Version : ISO: A decent paved path... LessasLashes 04-16-2007, 11:36 PM I am yurning to throw my skates on but can't seem to find a decent paved path in the area. I live in Petaluma and have checked out Wiseman Park by the airport.. but it's got cracks and pavement separation. I used to skate down at the Berkeley Marina (good 3+ mile one direction) and desperately need to take off some of this winter mush that's accumulated... alowe 04-17-2007, 08:38 AM That is a hard one. Chad and I tried to rollerblade quite a few years ago and ran across the same problem. I am terrible so we ended up going over by Schollerberger park and going around that business park. It is just side walks and parking lots though. HeatherK 04-18-2007, 10:54 PM I see lots of people roller blading on the path next to hwy 12 between SR and Sebastopol. It is straight and smooth. There are a few places to park and get on it. If you are daring and like hills, the path at Howarth and around Spring Lake in SR is nice. LessasLashes 04-18-2007, 11:44 PM How steep are we talking (with the hills?). alowe 04-19-2007, 08:54 AM There are a couple pretty steep ones. The Joe Rodota, which is the Hwy 12 path is a little scary at some points. I have done it many times, but never alone. It is a nice path just goes through some interesting areas. HeatherK 04-19-2007, 09:36 AM I was racking my brain for the name of that trail last night! Don't be frightened of the Joe Rodota trail, but there are homeless living nearby and on the trail. I live in Sebastopol, I'd be willing to join you. alowe 04-19-2007, 10:33 AM I would love to meet up and walk it with some of you. I work very close to it. My rollerblading skills are 0 so I wouldn't be a good partner at that. |
