"Mountain biking in South Dakota?" you might say. "Really??" Answer: Yes, really. However, the 5 highest-rated South Dakota trails on Singletracks are all located in western South Dakota, which is actually quite…
Was in the area and tried Lovers Leap, trail up is well traveled with foot traffic be a scree field in a lot of areas. Trail down is good in spots, washed out in spots, and the last 2 miles is an overgrown, mainly with poison ivy, horse trail. Not an enjoyable ride.
I looked at review and see that it's 4.5 star so I went. To my disappointment, it's not a intermediate level as trail has been pretty much washed out from all rains, which left all rocks which created riding even more difficult and challenge. The downhill wasn't even fast as so much rocks really obstacle the excitement. I'm flow biker so it's not enjoyable for me.
