Grand opening was November 6th 2016. Phase 1 is 40 miles of multi-sport and hiking trails. Specific tracks include: single track with technical/Northshore features, large pump track, large multi-lane jump lines, cyclocross, stairs ramps and rails,. Future development is planned including gravity features. Entire facility is about 250 Acres. Opening day was well attended by many varieties of bikers enjoying all the great features. Tracks are entirely man-made and were a bit soft and read it in places today but this place has tremendous potential and is a lot of fun aleady! Just feeling fortunate to be riding on a warm an dry sunny day in Chicago on November!!!
Finally a bike park with a Chicago address!

The fact that they've finally connected with the Forest Preserve/Parks people in IL and made a bike friendly park is hopefully only the beginning!
