Having ridden from Rapid City to Wall as part of a cross-country bike ride, a trail would be wonderful!! I rode on an old U.S. highway (12? 14?) part of the way and on the shoulder of the interstate for maybe 14 miles (yes, that’s allowed). Long-distance trails like these bring in more tourism dollars too.

Just think, by the time you pedal all the way to Wall, you won’t have to feel guilty about snarfing down a bunch of Wall Drug doughnuts — which, by the way, are the best. They put Krispy Kreme to shame.

I hope you all take a look at the Rails to Trails here in Virginia and the New River Valley. We have done that in Virginia and not only is our Rails to Trails for hikers and cyclist but equistrians come from all over the state to ride on our Rails To Trails… Google Shot Tower Rails to Trails in Southwest Virginia. I was born in Rapid City and have lived here in Virginia for the last 20 years and it would be awesome if the trails went from Rapid City to Wall Drug. Good Luck!
