Jim Wellington and a few pals have resurrected a mountain bike trail that he’d etched about 17 years ago in a Goshen woods as it follows the snaking Elkhart River. He can paddle to the trail across the river from his house, reaching a spot where he’s driven an orange stake to monitor fluctuations in the water level. After all, water affects access. If it’s too high, you can’t take the only path riding into the trail: under a bridge. In that case, you can hoof it — though with extreme caution — across busy Plymouth Avenue. But once you’re there, the two miles of flat trail weave as a quiet reprieve from the busier (and also flat) dirt trails across the river in the city’s 34.5-acre Dr. Larry Beachy Classified Forest.
