Delaware Canal Towpath
The old mule-towpath runs flat and straight through the middle of Yardley, part of a 59-mile canal path from Easton down to Bristol that Congress named a National Historic Landmark. Point a bike south and it's about 4.5 shaded miles to Washington Crossing, with ice cream stops along the way.
