Rail Trail-Type Cycling in Memphis?

My wife and I are taking a long Columbus Weekend trip to Memphis (October
5-7). We're kind of expecting the touristy stuff (Graceland, Sun Studios,
Civil Rights Museum, Beale Street) to be a disappointment, so we'd like to
build a bit of low-impact biking into the trip as a backup.

I haven't checked Rails-To-Trails yet, but those descriptions are never that
accurate anyway. Can anybody recommend a 15-20 mile rail trail-type path
(off-road, paved, flat, suitable for a casual rider like my wife) to check
out?

Thanks!

Check out the Germantown Greenway. Access to the asphalt river trial
is off of Wolf River Blvd. However, it's only 2 miles long, hoping
soon to be expanded to 32 miles. Better yet, check with LBS for some
easy neighborhood rides in evenings.

Thanks. Unfortunately, we had to postpone the trip for this weekend, but I
will look into this for when we rebook!
