With season over, it took me all of one day to get my mountain bike out. I am pretty averse to putting a bike on a car so I have been investigating urban opportunities.
With the help of our new team mate Brandon Lee, the trails at Cleveland Park are expanding. Teenie and I did a loop (40 minutes) down there this AM and then headed out the SRT. Teenie had spotted a potential trail at marker 282. I thought maybe we would find a few hundred feet of ridable trail?
Surprise! There is a pretty cool little network of maybe a few miles of single track. It connects to a motor cross track that we can ride also. Next I want to investigate marker 304 but I did not have enough time today. I think this will connect to a dirt rode that parallels the SRT under some power lines?? Not sure
Please check this out. These trails will improve if ridden more.
I am going to develop a route that will allow us to ride completely 'off road' for as long as possible. It will utilize sidewalks, single track, park and SRT. I think this can be pretty interesting (obviously not technical) and can substitute for all those easy road bike type rides! I think ride can be as long a 2-3 hours.
NEXT RIDE WILL BE WEDNESDAY MORN........let me know if you are interested?

This is good news. I was thinking about trying this out one night after work. This sounds like it will be great riding in the dark with lights this winter...
