Sevdie -
If you search the phrase "Local Motion", you'll come to some photos of the bikepath. You'll have to root around some, and they really don't give you a sense of the scope and beauty of the whole thing, but you'll get at least some photos.
Also - Here's something The Burlington Free Press ran, about the bike path(s).
" BURLINGTON:
BURLINGTON BIKE PATH
Flowing along the shores of Lake Champlain from Oak Ledge Park to the mouth of the Winooski River, Burlington's 7.6- mile bike path connects six major waterfront parks as well as Burlington High School. The path is a multiseason, multi-use stretch of asphalt that attracts bikers, inline skaters, runners, walkers, cross-country skiers and snowshoers. Conversion from the old Rutland and Burlington Railroad began in 1973 and was completed in 1986. The path hosts an estimated 150,000 users annually. In 2004, the addition of a 213-foot bridge over the Winooski River linked the Burlington bike path to Colchester.
WINOOSKI VALLEY PARK DISTRICT
This nonprofit organization was chartered in 1972 with the goal of acquiring and managing open space, wildlife habitat and natural areas near where people live and work for recreational use. The group manages more than 1,700 acres in and around Burlington with 22 miles of hiking trails and 12 miles of shoreline along the Winooski and Brown's rivers, Colchester Pond and Lake Champlain. Burlington is home to three areas managed by the WVPD including Ethan Allen Homestead, The Salmon Hole, and Mayes Landing. All of these areas offer wonderful hiking opportunities as well as fishing, and picnicking and canoeing spots.
LOCAL MOTION AND CYCLE THE CITY
Local Motion was founded in 1999 with a goal of developing and sustaining the Winooski River bike ferry and Cycle the City route. The bike ferry has since been developed into a permanent bridge that now connects the Burlington Bike path to the Winooski Valley Park District-managed Delta Park in Colchester, and on along Colchester's causeway. During August, a ferry runs on weekends bridging the gap in the causeway allowing cyclists to explore Grand Isle's bikeways. Local Motion developed and promotes the Cycle the City route, which is a 10.7-mile pedal along the bike path, through Ethan Allen Homestead, the Intervale, University of Vermont campus, Burlington's South End and waterfront areas. Local Motion offers guide books and maps as well as bike and inline skate rentals at their location on the waterfront at Main Street Landing. Bike lockers are also available for rent by the day, week month and year as well as tandem bikes for the more playful riders. " - End Free Press quote -

I'm stumped that there aren't more photos at this site.
And here's another example of a fantastic recently constructed facility with a website which offers a few photos. But the photos are both deeply buried in the site, and mainly depict things other than the wonderful building itself and the spectacular waterfront park/site.
Here's a good photo from the site. This is right at Burlington's waterfront and the bikepath goes right by the building.

I'm really surprised too that there aren't more good photos on these sites.
I tried to post a photo I'm sorta proud of to this site. A photo of the Municipal Boathouse right on the Burlington Waterfront I took a couple of years ago. But it hasn't shown up.
