hey, i'd like to talk to you a little before you go "improving" that area any... i think it is still pretty off the radar to most and i already see plenty of evidence of people trying to close those trails down. go easy as there are some big houses at the top of those hills and i bet those people carry big weight with the FPC.

holla back at me via PM! maybe we can go up there sometime together to czeck it out! actually you guys riding tuesday again?

Max we must not be talking about the same trail. There are huge apartments at the top of these trails and they are basically deserted. I have NEVER seen one other person on those trails while riding them. I think everyone is afraid to go in there alone. But let's ride!

I remember passing a hiker out there recently. He seemed as suprised to see us as we were to see him. Very old gentleman. Those trails could use some love. They are super fun to ride but lack flow in some spots due to nobody maintaining them. You can tell they are hardly used by how they are growing in. In a stacked loop trail design these would more than likely be the expert outer loop that most beginner trail users are not going to venture out to. When Jill from IMBA was in town last year she mentioned those trails would be ideal as an expert loop with some mountainbike specific builds due to their remoteness from the rest of the crowded areas of the park.

I agree with Lou, let's ride.
