Title: Eagle Creek Meeting Wednesday June 21st.
Post by: Paul_Arlinghaus on June 14, 2017, 02:33:25 PM

 HMBA has been offered an option for trails at Eagle Creek, but not in the area we were asking for.  We need input from the mountain bike community, especially those who live near Eagle Creek to help us decide on our course of action moving forward.  We are meeting on Wednesday June 21st at Big Woods (Speedway) in the upper room at 7:30PM.

This Maps shows both the 2014 HMBA proposal for the West Side (Upper trails) and Area P which Indy Parks is proposing (Bottom)

This Map is a close up of a general concept for Area P.

Area P would be less mileage but would be bike only, allowing the trails to be really bike optimized.  System would require Pro - Trail Building which means fund raising to pay for it.
