Bike Paths
Bike paths are bicycle routes that follow an independent right-of-way. There are two distinct types of bike paths: those used exclusively by bicycles and those shared with pedestrians. In the United States almost all bike paths are shared with pedestrians.
Bike paths are often built on old railroad right-of-ways (called rail trails) and as part of greenways and foreshoreways.

Famous quotes containing the word paths:
“O Master, let me walk with Thee
In lowly paths of service free;
Tell me Thy secret, help me bear
The strain of toil, the fret of care.”
—Washington Gladden (1836–1918)
