Wow lol wasnt really expecting what i encountered . Was my first time here, so i dont know the area well nor the trails and on top of that everything was wet and im still on the plastic pedals that came with my bike .. Anyways, i think i just found my new trail system , this is the type of terrain i been looking for, but i will admit i had to hike my bike quite a bit on the trails . I dunno about you guys but i def think my new knee pads will come into use at this place , i almost went OTB today 9/24 a couple times . Once i learn the trail im sure i will do a lot better and i think i took the trail system the wrong way lol ..
I parked up at the maint ent off skyline dr , i jumped onto red/white blaze then intersected @ cannonball trail , i took a left there and went down , took a left onto blue and got a nice view of the lake there . I took blue across and jumped onto yellow trail to come back up to main ent . WTF did i make a mistake going UP this thing :cry: .. Im not gonna lie , i prob hiked 75% of it , it was just too much , couldnt get traction, tight areas , and i couldnt pick a good line not knowing anything about the trail . I did enjoy the little rock jumps that whoever made coming close to the fireroad on yellow .. All in all , it was a short trip, it kicked my ass , didnt have enough water, no pads , no gloves on me so i ended my ride to be safe . I will def be prepared next time and would like to try this place when its somewhat dried out . How does this place compare to Ringwood ?
