First time out here. Perfect weather, but had only 2 hours to spare, so I didn't make it to the lollipop loop. Overall, I'm very impressed with the quality of the build - getting back to the car with a clean bike after 2 hours of riding i...

Joined a ride advertised on the Evergreen Calendar, and so did some 12 other riders - despite being a large group, we were going strong, which was much needed on this loop. We took off from the Rat Pac bike park around 10am, went up the fire road for...

Banner is one of my favorites. It's not particularly difficult, although you'll find enough to challeng you. It's easilly accessible from the ferry - if you're coming from Seattle, park (or bus...or ride!) at the west Seattle ferry and just ride on....

Got up to the trail early on a Friday morning, we had planned to go out and were determined to ride despite the weather. It was raining and in the mid 40s at the Rattlesnake Ridge parking lot. The trail wasn't slippery even though it'd seen a lo...

My only regret is that we made the mistake of going out here on the opening weekend of elk season! We had planned to do the 20ish mile short loop, ended up doing a 16 mile loop.
We were descending into a portion of the route that would take us throu...

Kind of moot now as the trail closes for bikes tomorrow, but the big tree crossing downstream form Goldmeyer hot springs has been substantially damamged by a tree fall. We looked at it and decided that is was too dangerous to cross. A photo fo...

Took the day off to make a nice epic at North Mountain. If you haven't done the park yet, come enjoy those trails. On this trip, I started early, parking at Whitehorse Park and rode the road up to the summit, had lunch at the lookout, and then came b...

Sunny day - check. Perfect temp - check. Fall colors - check. Beautiful views - check. Hero dirt - check. All the boxes checked. Been riding since 1986 and today was the best. Not many warm sunny days left. Go get some.

I wasn't prepared for the sheer tranquility and breathtaking views of this trail, nor its virtually relentless ascent. It is an instant classic and a new personal favorite. The routing is expertly contoured to maximize pedaling efficiency...

I rode the blue lines this morning; Dueces, Movin'on, Breavehart, StepItUp, and Bootcamp in that order. These trails are clear from the Wed night windstorm with one exception. There is a tree near the end of bootcamp. Someone stacked some bits...

Manastash area trails are riding well. Brush and grasses are falling back so trails are well exposed and open. KOM time of year.

I rode the main Olallie trail to the camp (the flat pad above the second set of switchbacks shown on the annotated map) and then continued on as many others have done to the top of Mt WA.
Here are directions and a map for anyone who wants to give th...

This is such a great epic ride! Beautiful views, a good mix of flow and technical riding and you finish right in town. We encountered snow but still had a fun time and we were still able to ride everything. The trail is in good shape, which always su...

Smith Creek is closed in between the top of the steps and where it rejoins with the road. Trail is closed due to washouts. There are a few up there below the rock face, but mostly it's just overgrown. Don't recommend this section.&n...

Not sure what the weather this weekend is going to do snow wise but as of 9/28 everything is clear of snow and in great shape. No evidence of any smoke from the Uno Peak fire. Loose and dry as to be expected in places but all of the desce...

I like this route because you don't go down steep decents for no reason. This route includes Oryan (Flowtron type run). When the rain comes the North side get sipery but the South side does much better.

Great Fall ride - did the lollipop route. The recent rain has eliminated the clearcut dusty conditions. The climb to the bench was in great shape. The downhill was still wet and got progressively slicker. The steep berms in the last section bef...

For first timers: There's basically no signage. I highly recommend parking at the "Tails and Trails" dog park, taking the trail to your left when facing the dog park, past the gate and down to the railroad tracks. To get to my favorite place to drop...

Here's a shout out to Buck's Bikes and Buck for his vision for Seabrook biking!
I rode 'Narnia' and 'Witch' trail's.
If you like fresh forest trails with a soft forest floor, roots and a couple of drops these are a fun rides. And it was great ridin...
