My son and I just completed the Clinton to St. Charles run. Trail conditions were generally quite good but beware of the detour south of Easley. Gravel road for about 3.5 miles quite a challenge for some bikes (we had a road bike and an urban bike). We ended up walking most of it as the large gravel pieces were too much for us. This area is also fully exposed to the sun so it can be a long, hot march.

What size tires on the urban bike? I guess the road bike had the small, thin smooth tires?

I took the detour about 10 days ago. I was on 1 1/4 inch, it was rough but rideable.

I agree. The gravel on the ridearound was miserable yesterday. We both have 2+ inch tires, and rode it all, but it was really tough.

The Easley construction is done now and the trail is back open!
