Mountain Bike
A quick, easy, smooth trail. Good for testing out new tires or pedals, but not great for pounding out a lot of miles. You can use this to connect to Dowdy Draw, Community Ditch, Greenbelt, and all of the other trails around this area, though, for a longer ride. I prefer riding this one counterclockwise, but either way is nice. There are a lot of really nice views of the Flatirons throughout the trail, so it's a pleasant ride. Courtesy of Singletracks.com
