Description

This two-way trail is the most direct way to gain access to the South Loop, and its moderate grades make it fun in both directions. The trail is fun and flowing as it crosses a pedestrian bridge over Redbud Road and then loops around the Whirleygig to continue to Victor Ashe.

Be considerate of other trail users by being aware and controlling your speed.

Wiped out once coming down. Went into a turn fast and pulled the breaks in it. Not sure if I was going too fast or if it was the break pull.
