"The Wildcat Canyon Flow Trail would be located in the western portion of the park, north of Wildcat Creek Trail on a hillside near the Mezue Road intersection. It would feature rollers, essentially speed bumps meant to slow bikes, jumps, berms and turnout areas to keep riders from skidding off. The proposed trail would be up to 4-feet-wide with an average grade of 5 to 7%."
"Anyone wanting to comment in-person on the East Bay Regional Park District's plan to build a 1.4-mile bicycle-only trail in Wildcat Canyon Regional Park can do so on Tuesday. The proposed trail has divided nearby East Bay residents with proponents arguing that it would give local mountain bikers, especially young cyclists, a safe place to ride, and opponents worried about soil erosion, noise and increased congestion on nearby trails."
EBRPD proposes a 1.4-mile, bicycle-only Wildcat Canyon Flow Trail on a hillside north of Wildcat Creek Trail near the Mezue Road intersection. The trail would be up to 4 feet wide with an average grade of 5–7% and include rollers, jumps, berms and turnout areas. Proponents say it would provide a safe place for local and youth mountain bikers and reduce bike traffic on other trails; opponents cite concerns about soil erosion, noise and increased congestion. The district is holding a public scoping meeting Jan. 27 and will accept written comments by Feb. 14 to shape the environmental impact report.
