Lakelands Trail State Park

Lakelands Trail State Park, officially the Mike Levine Lakelands Trail State Park since January 20, 2017, is a state park in Michigan that runs east-west from Stockbridge to Hamburg Township, Michigan. It is a multi-use trail converted from abandoned railroad corridors. According to the Michigan DNR web site, the north side of the trail is for hiking and biking, and the south side is for horseback riding.[1] The trail is 26 miles (42 km) long with the surface from Munith to west of Pinckney composed of sections of crushed limestone, slag and sand, or unimproved. 10 miles (16 km) are paved in Hamburg Township.[2]

gollark: No, you can integrate the acceleration to get displacement.
gollark: Do you mean "inertial"?
gollark: 8km/s fast.

gollark: Inertial guidance or whatever probably less so, at the accelerations it'd have to deal with.
