I have been riding this trail since 2001 on and off through the years, it is now my favorite trail, with Clearbay and Arcadia at a close second. I was ready Bill911Dentons review from back in 2005. Draper now has 6 loops- 4 1 mile or less loops, then the green and Yellow loops that are about 4 miles each I think. Anyways, I now do the whole course when I ride there (except the black) and I get in just over 10.5 miles.There are some short climbs here that arent anything if the ground is dry, but they may work you a bit when its soft. Either way, this is a fun try to just let it all hang out. Lots of deer and squirrels during warmer months

Similar Trail: Clearbay, Arcadia trail, Bluff Creek when its maintained, I heard Roman nose is beautiful

This is a great trail that has something for everyone at every skill level! It is very well maintained by oklahoma earth bike fellowship. It is also a well thought out and designed trail system. Green is the feeder trail to get you to the other trails...yellow, orange, black, red, and blue. There is a color coded trail system: green- easiest all the way to red- hardest. There are two new trails: yellow- intermediate and black- more of a bmx/free ride trail. It is an awesome ride.

I've watched this trail grow since 2007. Oklahoma Earthbike Fellowship (OEF) http://www.okearthbike.com has done an amazing job keeping up with the trails and adding new ones over the last couple years. Within the last couple months they added a bunch of stuff to the freeride area (now renamed to "Back in Black"). As well as adding some decent sized hits at the very end of the ride. Hats off to OEF. Very enjoyable ride.

Great multi-level trail system. New table top jump and bermed turn added on the red trail yesterday. Also the half-pipe gulley has been improved for smoother flow. Always something new being added. Trail can be quite tight in areas, but that's part of mountain biking. Not hitting trees is a skill, one I have yet to perfect.

This is one of the best maintained trail systems around. I would cut some more trees away from the trail in some spots-but overall I love this very fast and fun trail system. Good job OEB.

Similar Trail: very similar to Hefner.

This is a great trail for beginners. Teaches you how to climb, descend, and trudge through sand and mud.

This trail is the best marked/maitained trail I have ridden this summer. It is a bit sandy, but it is Oklahoma in August on a trail that is obviously heavily used. This is probably my favorite overall because of the possibilty of linking all trails, along with not having to "Hike a Bike" anywhere for a nice 11+ mile ride. Very well marked with lots of Bail outs if needed (though there is really no reason to use them...nothing too technical that you can't go around if you choose to).

if you like sand come here, it kills your momentum when you have a good run going. I did like how the trails were linked together from the beginner trail. The advanced courses are fun to ride, there's some good jumps and obsticals to ride. The beginner trail is 99% gradual up and down hills with sand and turns. If it's your first ride and you haven't figured out how far you can lean your bike and still stay up, this is a good trail to hit. It's also very well maintained.

Way too much sand. Very few climbs. You will like this trail if you dont like much rocks or roots. Descent ride with some good steep droops, but I won't be back.

Well maintained trail. You can choose from three trails from beginner to advanced. Pretty fast course with plenty of sand. Not many climbs, nothing to tough. Perfect trail for beginners.

Well maintained, almost all single track. Nothing too technical, but fast. Sandy corners. Fun bridges and v-trees. A few unexpected or fun drops. No big climbs, and hardly any climbing at all. All 3 loops are fast through the trees. Great job by OEF to maximize the park.

Trail now totals about 13 miles of singletrack if all loops are ridden. Ave. time 1 hour to and 1 hour and a half. Yellow, Green and Red. Weekly ride on Tues. at 6pm. Usually dries quickly after rain.

Similar Trail: ClearBay at Lake Thunderbird in Norman Lake McMurtry at Stilwater.

Very well maintained trail, the intermediate trail is pretty fast with lots of turns, I preferred the old section of the intermediate, the advanced section was fast and fun.

Similar Trail: ClearBay in Norman
