点评:My wife and I rode the Tammany Trace round trip from the Covington TH to the Mandeville TH. Considering that I’m a senior citizen and only an occasional, short distance bike rider, I still found the trail very enjoyable and easy to ride with the terrain being flat. The round trip ride, with a side ride from the Mandeville TH to the Lake Pontchartain north shore line, was about 25 miles. The last few miles were a bit tiring, but that should be expected considering my bike riding experience. BUT I MADE IT! The March weather was perfect (sunny, temp in the 60’s and no wind) and made the journey very enjoyable, riding through the shady countryside. My only criticism was the public restrooms along the route were locked. Maybe it was because it was a weekday. I had to find businesses that allowed me to use their facilities. But with the trail being in friendly South Louisiana, that was easy to do. I highly recommend this bike trail to anyone interested. Word of warning, if you make the ride during the summer months, be aware the South Louisiana summers can be brutal with temps in the 90’s and high humidity. So dress appropriately and bring plenty of fluids to drink! Otherwise, go for it and enjoy this great South Louisiana adventure!
翻译:我和妻子骑车往返于科文顿步道起点和曼德维尔步道起点之间。考虑到我是一位老年人,而且只是偶尔骑短途自行车,我仍然觉得这条步道非常舒适,平坦的地形也让骑行变得轻松愉快。往返全程大约25英里,其中还包括从曼德维尔步道起点到庞恰特兰湖北岸的一段支线骑行。最后几英里有点累,但考虑到我的骑行经验,这也在意料之中。但我最终还是完成了!三月的天气非常完美(阳光明媚,气温在60华氏度左右,无风),骑行在绿树成荫的乡村,让这段旅程格外惬意。我唯一不满的是沿途的公共洗手间都锁着。也许是因为那天是工作日。我不得不寻找允许我使用洗手间的商家。不过,由于这条步道位于友好的路易斯安那州南部,所以这并不难。我强烈推荐这条自行车道给所有感兴趣的人。友情提醒,如果您在夏季出行,请注意路易斯安那州南部夏季酷热难耐,气温高达90多华氏度(约32摄氏度),湿度也很大。所以请务必穿着合适的衣物,并携带充足的饮用水!除此之外,尽情享受这段精彩的路易斯安那州南部探险之旅吧!
