Work continues on Kirby’s master plan for a perimeter loop at SIUE which will allow you to ride what will end up being nearly 8 miles of singletrack and a couple of hundred feet of bike path. Considering the small area and the difficulty of finding sufficient terrain because of the large drainages, soil type, and flat nature of the area, this trail system is pretty amazing.
Over 30 volunteers showed up Saturday on a cold, damp day to work towards the completion of Trail 4. Come out on Sat. Feb. 24th if you can and help finish this trail. We’ll have an updated map up on the Trails page soon, plus there will finally be some signs out there marking the trails to go along with the new kiosks.
