The Tyler Bicycle Club Works at Faulkner Park By Rick Ankrum, on January 21, 2009, 10:49 pm from www.tylerpaper.com

The Tyler Bicycle Club is on the path to completing a proposed 5-mile multi-use mountain biking trail at Faulkner Park to be built almost entirely by volunteers.
In August, the City of Tyler signed a memorandum of agreement to allow the bicycle club to build the trail using Faulkner Park land as well as City of Tyler Water Utilities Department land. Volunteers with the project said it will be similar to the trail system at Tyler State Park, which is used for hiking and mountain biking.

About Texbiker.net Texbiker.net covers the news, events and resources for those interested in Texas bicycling.
My bicycling passion was rekindled in 1979 with a Huffy bicycle from Woolco. From early rides around my neighborhood my enthusiasm grew to tackle my unsupported first century. From there I discovered organized rides all over Texas, races and mountain bikes. Many bikes and miles later the enthusiasm is still there.
Thanks to my wife, Hazel Marie, for her support over the many years, miles and rides.
In 1999 Texbiker.net was born to help my fellow bikers have ready access to all of the information about the Texas bicycling scene.

I am so excited about this new trail, that is awesome. Is this for Mountain and rode bike’s?
Last summer I went to Seattle area and rode there bike trail systm is unbelievable.
If we could get just 1/3rd of it I’d be very happy.
Sorry missed the end of the story, it is only for mountain bikes. Most of the trails I rode in Seattle area were for rode bike’s but people were riding both. I did my first 50 mile ride there called the Seattle Century I hope to do the 100 mile this summer.
I believe this is more for mountain bikes.
Yes, I found that out from Simpson.
