Helyar Woods?

Has anyone ever ridden Helyar Woods at the Rutgers gardens? it is a small-ish trail system that has access points from the Rutgers Gardens parking lot but also from a surrounding neighborhood (supposedly). I always thought the trail system was hikers only, but today when I was there wit my family, I realized that there's no such signage stating that and given that Rutgers Eco Preserve is hike and bike friendly, I thought maybe Helyar Woods is as well. It might be possible to link the Eco preserve and Helyar Woods with some on road miles from johnson park across the 18 pedestrian corridor to Cook/Douglas then out to Rutgers Gardens.

You can, but it's a ton of road for 1.5 miles of woods. If I'm looking to add miles I'll jump on the Canal into BB, head over the bridge, right onto River Road, then there's a quad trail that follows the river into Olde Towne Village at Johnson Park. I think it's like 25 miles all in depending on which loop you do at the Preserve.
