Talk about Traversatile! The East Coast Greenway--the biggest, longest trail you've never heard of--continues to elongate and grow, rivaling its better known competitor, the Appalachian Trail (ATC). And they're hiring, apparently, at their headquarters in Durham, NC. The Greenway organization is attempting to plan, map, build and actualize a 2500-mile long trail from Maine to Florida, using both new and existing routes, rail-trails, roads, separated paths and much more. And, it's meant to be a path for many modes of low-impact transportation, from horses to recumbent bicycles to bikes to skateboards to walking.
Now, if only there was a West Coast Greenway.....Hmmmm.
\ˌtrə-ˈ or tra-ˈ-vərs--sə-ˈti-lə-tē\ Noun. Traversal + Versatility. The state or quality of being versatile in one's modes of traversal; implies travel with respect for the planet Earth, e.g bicycling, walking, skating, using public transit. A neologism of 'traverse' and 'versatility'.
