One of the charming aspects of downtown Lincolnton is our Rail Trail.  It is a walking/biking trail that winds its way through downtown Lincolnton.  Currently the Rail Trail runs from Pine Street to Motz Avenue.  The city is considering opening a new phase to the trail that will run from Pine Street to the City Park.   However, we may not know for a few months whether this phase will be approved.  Lets keep our fingers crossed.  Whether you want to walk, run, skate, or ride a bike it is a great quiet place to exercise 02/12/2008
