I just learned about another cool Grand Rapids cycling development today from pedalgr. The Michigan Mountain Biking Association is building the Grand Rapids Bike Park in Plaster Creek Park near Burton and US-131. It will sort of surround the BMX track (which I also did not know was there).
This will be another cool set of trails to mountain bike here in GR - and it's only about 7 miles from my house. I look forward to its completion this fall, so I can check it out!
I saw an update to this story in the news this week. Due to burocratic slowness, the park should now be completed late next spring. There will be about a mile of mountain bike trail, which isn't much, but it's better than nothing. It'll be the closest MTB trail to my house. All the good ones are north of town, while I live south.
