Yeah, I just read about it. There are areas that you can see tops of trees not too far off the path. I always make my DH ride on that side because I get squirrelly on high or narrow areas. Either way it's tragic but I am hoping for my faith in humanity and that it turns out to be a freak accident.
The latest reports say they found her body near the 14-mile mark. Well within the more popular (and populated) section of the trail, right near the Hiram trailhead. I'm going over that section in my head, and it all seems pretty flat there - no ravines or ditches nearby. This is so upsetting. I really can't believe that something could happen out there in broad daylight. I used to ride the length of the trail - even the remote sections - all winter long, when there was rarely ever anyone out there. I guess that's gonna stop.

SMYRNA, Ga. (AP) -- Officials in Paulding County found a woman's body Wednesday along the Silver Comet Trail, and a Smyrna Police Department spokesman said the body was believed to be that of a missing 54-year-old woman.
Jennifer Ewing of Sandy Springs had gone riding on the trail on Tuesday, but failed to return home.
"What we believe to be the body of Jennifer Ewing" has been found in Paulding County, Smyrna spokesman Sgt. Robert Harvey said. "The body has not been positively identified by the GBI."
Harvey said he believed Ewing's bicycle was also found, but said he had few details of the discovery somewhere in Paulding County.

uh oh. if they aren't saying "this was an accident" that probably means foul play was involved?
Oh my gosh, I just feel so awful for her and for her family![]()
