I rode the Oklahoma River Trail in August 2024. I started at the access at 15th and Portland and rode east. The trail looked great, nice and wide and things were going smoothly until 3.5 miles in my rear tire went flat. There was a large thorn in the tire. I noticed more of them stuck in the front and rear tires. I fixed my flat and immediately turned around. I'm not sure how the north side of the river is but I suggest thorn proof tires on the south side.

I rode this trail on a windy day in August 2024 counter clockwise ( I've read here that's the wrong way ). Very nice wide asphalt in mint condition and a yellow lane marker like a highway has. The trail winds around Lake Stanley Draper with gentle hills and curves. Someone riding in the opposite direction said he saw a bobcat but I did not, though I looked pretty hard! 13.5 miles of bliss without a single boring moment. 5 stars!

This is a very nice trail. Contrary to others comments, it does go all the way around the lake.
This is a nice trail for bikers and hikers. Relatively flat, with some shade and some scenic views. The trail winds behind some industrial areas but it was always clean and safe.
Loved this trail. Yes, there were lots of people on the trai, but with separate lanes for bikers and walkers, it didn't feel congested at all.
It doesn’t go all the way around the lake. Map shows it but 1/4 is future trail! Worth the ride while passing thy.
FYI it’s longer than 2.5 miles. At least it is now. You can start west of 35 at the food places and take the trail all the way to the swimming beach at the lake. High speeds with a wide pavement trail for the road bikes. Theirs also unpaved off shoots for the MTBs. I park my Jeep at Integris on the east side of 35 and ride all the way to the water behind the parking lot for the swimming area
This trail for the most part pretty flat, kinda boring. You also really can’t get any speed up safely because it’s usually pretty busy but… the scenery is beautiful from the little house to the marina. I went around sunset so watching the sunset on the water was something. It’s on my way home so I see myself hitting this one 1 lap from lighthouse to lighthouse at a steady pace takes around 30-40 minutes
Great 13.5 mile trail with rolling hills. Had the loop to myself today. It was 40 degrees and raining. Saw 8 deer too and there’s even some hidden gems to catch your attention and get your mind off the grind! Run it counter clockwise for max hills!
Nice loop trail for avid cyclists to do laps w/o feeling repetitive. Trail surface very smooth & nice curves & easy grades.
We rode 20 miles round trip beginning at the Trailhead near the Bass Pro Shop & the Westward expansion bronze statues. We had a map that depicted how we could ride the north & south sides of the river and where to cross however the river crossings were not marked well on either side of the trail and caused us a lot of time and stress trying to find them. We travelled west on the north (city) side of the border with trail and crossed the river at the first bridge ¿ about 8 miles. There was a sizeable homeless encampment about 1 mile before the bridge and when we crossed the street bridge a homeless person’s unleashed dog startled us with barks & growls. There were no obvious signs on
