Any biking trails?

hi there--Any safe biking trails in Newport? I haven%26#39;t been to Newport in years and wondered if there were any trails on Ocean Drive? Also, wonder about the White Horse Tavern..really enjoyed it many years ago, but just read some mixed reviews. If the biking doesn%26#39;t work out, any advice on the Cliff Walk by foot?

Any biking trails?

No there aren%26#39;t biking trails in Newport- plenty of nice roads to ride on including Ocean Drive. Cliff Walk is initially paved though there are several sections with stairs to about the middle. Then, starting at about Marine Ave. it has intermitant stretches of sections with large, human placed rocks. The final section is all walking on the cliffs.

Any biking trails?

Thanks for the info. I am concerned about the traffic w/ bike riding. Does the traffic decrease after Labor Day? I%26#39;m planning a special birthday dinner--thought the White Horse Tavern would be a good idea, but I have read some disappointing reviews. Have you been there recently? Is there another restaurant you would recommed for a special occasion? Thanks again for your help!

I dont know if you are looking to bike in newport exclusively but if you are more interested in biking than in visiting things around newport, you might like to try the east bay bike path that starts/ends in Bristol (not too far from newport by car) and goes long the water of the bay up to Providence.

Just for your information since you mentioned biking....

Yes the traffic does fall off after labor day. Ocean Drive is fairly quiet in the mornings especially; a nice quiet street to ride on in particular is Coggeshall Avenue, parallel to Bellevue Ave. Regarding the White Horse, I know they%26#39;ve just started outdoor dining.
