So i had checked out this trail last year when i first moved here. but i had driven to where i was told there was the entrance and had taken my son. we went on one path at the entrance and came out the other end of the parking lot.

I never went back because it was too much of a hassle to try and fit the bike in the back since i didn't have any proper hitch.

well as it would turn out there is an entrance to the trail just around the corner from my house. so the last two days i went to check it out.

it's a great trail...for me anyhow. there are areas i can't do and will have to learn and then there are areas that are just endurance driven.

here are some pictures from today.

oh...and WTF? why is this in the middle of a trail...at the END of it so there's no other way to go? There's no way i can think of to ride it...my handlebars won't fit. so i end up lifting the bike up and carrying it. :cry:

Graphics- Sorry I never got back to you. Spilly and I are living in Fairfield now and don't get up that way much anymore (I work in Norwalk and she's in Stamford- traffic makes weekday rides anywhere north of trumbull impossible), but I'd love to make it out to those trails at some point. Lokk like a good time.

yea i figured you were too south. i am actually gonna try and hit it tomorrow. my bike was in the shop ALREADY...but it's back and just in time. tomorrow should be good.

anytime you both want to meet up for a casual weekend ride...just PM me. there is also a nice trail that goes around Lake Saltonstall that i've been dying to explore more...but won't do it on my own. :o both trails are right by the house.
