Hooray! Rode it today; among to first. I would wait until it's closer to opening, though, since there are still climb-over jersey barrier barring the crosses of bridges, which already need deck service since they're all buckled from years of disuse and neglect, and instersections have yet to be improved. But they are making a nice parking lot at the corner of Laurel and Pilgrim Aves, just off 117 across from Concordia, where you can see a great triple waterfall from their lot. It's a very pleasant stretch, probably the nicest of they entire facility. In case you don't believe it after 8 years of waiting. Here's a picture of the bridge over Flat River Road near Knotty Oak, the last crossing before hooking up with existing section. http://web.mac.com/labann/Nattura/Coventry_files/shapeimage_2.jpg Congrats to Steve Church and pals at RIDOT.
