Geocache Description:

A series to encourage us to get out of the gas guzzlers and onto a bicycle.

A nice railbed maintained by the local ATV club. Trail is open for use by hikers, mountain bikers and horseback riders in addition to ATVs. NO CARS or TRUCKS though.

Parking is available at either end of the series though I would recommend starting at the Petitcodiac end as the ascent to Havelock is slow and gradual on the railbed and the return trip can be done on route 885, for the most part a fun and fast ride back to Petty as you desend from the top of Powell hill (150M) in Kinnear settlement to the bottom at the Beckwith Road (50M) intersection. The rest or the return ride is pretty easy.
