    Default Where are the good riding spots .

    I've been debating on getting back into riding and getting in shape. So today I bit the bullet and spent a little $ on this:




    So where are some good trails, Are there any good ones around Lake Grapevine ?

    Windmill Hill Preserve is nice, Cedar Hill State Park is hardcore, both down south.

    Thanks for the tips,
    I enjoy trails that have a good mix of intermediate and hard stuff, But my wife is a novice so I need to go some where she can follow me without having issues. The first time she went riding with me we were riding with a few of my friends . My friends and I started to race , She Tried to keep up !
    Long story short theres a Short but steep down hill section with a Quick S curve with burms on both curves The trail is about 3ft wide with a 10ft dropoff on 1 side and a 3ft drop on the other This is after a high speed section of the trail thats flat and about 15ft wide. Well my wife didn't make the left at the bottom and went over the handlebars and chipped her shin bone and got bruised up pretty bad not to mention landing in a sticker bush. Her bike has been sitting since until today when we went riding at bob eden park which I thought sucked it was too flat and paved for me

    River Legacy park in Arlington has a nice loop with varying degrees of difficulty.
