    Nice little trail, making the most of the space available. The south loop is a little more technical than the north, but the north has some nice sections that are worth checking out. Trail is a little overgrown and seems to take 3-4 days to really dry out. I rode 3 days after some rain and there were still a couple slick spots to be mindful of.
    Quite a few tree roots have been exposed forming some small natural drops, which are fun to take with some speed. Not a super flowy trail though. It's difficult to carry much speed as not many turns are banked. A couple of the climbs were challenging for my bald tires (time to get new ones for sure).

    Fun trail loops. Nice mix of hills and fast single track. I really enjoy the layout and ride. Depending on how often the trails are maintained, sticker bushes encroach on the trails and can snag you.

    Great fun trail. Well maintained by the local crew. Not very technical but a great cardio workout when you kick it up and do a couple laps. A few drops and jumps. Bit muddy today but adds to the fun. Start at the tennis court parking lot where there's a trail map.

    Not technical but tight and twisty. Has some small climbs as well. Easy trail to follow. Not much traffic on these trails. Worth checking out if in the area.

    Not a bad little trail... unfortunately due to road construction you can not ride both sides of the park at this time with out getting back in your car and driving to the other side. Other then that I enjoyed riding it.

    I liked this one a lot. I'm going 4 stars although that may be a little grade inflation. For a park in town it has a lot of trail. About 7-8 miles although some of that is backtracking between N and S. The park and trail is divided by US-30. TH at tennis court on S end but you could start out from N side near hywy. It opens with some good climbing bits if you take the optional loops, which are more like main trail with optional by pass. On the N side there's a nice technical option that parallels the green for a bit, you'll see where to drop in, and someone has been busy building a new section at the N end. It's a bit technical with some sharp steep climbs and drops, still a little loose, and off camber in places, old trail acts as a bypass. Then the milk run all the way back to tennis courts(Mostly) Runners go backwards. Mostly kinda easy but sure was fun.

    Lots of fun with several different options on what path you want to take. There are a lot of short and rooted climbs and tight twisty sections. There is also not much traffic of walkers or other bike traffic.

    Not very technical, good for a timed workout. Not worth a long drive, but good for the beginner.
