Review: Being modesto only singetrack trails, it a really good beginner trail, very smooth and not many rocks and debris. some area have very low tree branches, so your going need to duck. some parts of the trail are narrow and close to edge, but there alternate route to avoid them

Review: Almost trail.... My first time here and I was blown away. If your a noob, this is a trail to try.

Review: I've been riding this trail for 20 years and it is constantly changing. I also ride Mammoth, Tahoe and others. For a trail with no elevation this trail is real good. If you choose the right paths it can be challenging. Good narrow single track. Short climbs and some good short downhill. Ride the trail from Kewin to Claus Rd and you can put in a good 12 mile ride.

Review: Easy ride for beginners. Nothing to technical. There are a couple of spots that are challenging but always has an alternate route.

Review: I am just getting back in to Mtn. Biking & decided to try this trail out & I found it really entertaining. Some nice straight aways & a good mix of technical stuff. There is a Bathroom right in the middle by the park, with water to boot. The trail would be a LOT better if it had ribbons or markers designating the trail, but after a few passes, I'm sure I'll figure it out. There are a few spots with very low hanging tree limbs & some single track that is about 12" wide with no where to go, but down in to the river. One last thing, be aware when riding this trail, very blind & you are destined to meet someone head-on.. But, a super trail, that is super convenient...

Similar Trail: Arizona!

Review: Not a bad ride, i avoided the edges with the huge dips because im a beginner and it didnt seem very safe for my skill level, but the nice thing was the trail usually broke off into two seperate paths one being difficult and other being easy. So overall really enjoyable ride i went from one end to the other i thought i would be much longer but i did it fairly quick, so if you want to go i recommend taking a picnic basket or something, take a break relax and then go hit the trail again that will make it much more enjoyable, overall awesome place to enjoy a good ride.

Review: Overall, the trail is very fun. i am new to mountain biking and this is one of my first trails that i have rode. many more to come ^_^

Similar Trail: non so far.. need more experience sorry =\

Review: Great place to either take it easy (w/ the family) on the paved trail or ride the adjacent single-tracks running along the river for some thrills.

Review: this trail is actually a sick trail there are some parts where it can get really skinny and trees the you have to dodge and manuver through this is a great trail that i will come back to every week

Review: Like another reviewer said, this IS a sick ass trail! My first time out was yesterday and you might want take it slower at first like i did but then another biker and I blasted through it on the way back and hit the upper part also for a damn good workout. There are some spots where the trail eroded and if you're not careful can take a tumble into the river below. For a saturday there really was not a lot of other bikers on the trail. I definitely found a local spot I'll be coming back to.

Review: I was pleased to find a clean quick trail with options to play around. I look forward to doing it at different times of year.

Review: Nice trails for family and solo riding. Not too crowded during the week. As one rider wrote, can work up a good sweat on the upper trail by the golf course. Also a paved trail, good for the young kids!

Review: Super fun! not to hard, undulating terrain, Be cautious in certain areas of trail its very narrow, and eroding on cliff side. Its easy to ride or fall off the track if you aren't careful. I took my Sister in-law and her boyfriend out there, and she got caught up and tumbled down the cliff, through brush and thorn bushes and into the water. Luckily she is ok, just sc***es and bruises! if you are new, take the trail very slow!

Review: paved part sucks, stay off the asphalt

Review: This is my second fva local run, it is nice. You can go after work, get some time in and ride home if your a local. If not great network of trails for weekend riding. Fun for all ages, my son whom is five loved it.

Review: This is a sick single track. Some good climbs and some pretty fast descents, if you want it to be. Kinda short, but couple of laps and you'll have some sweat drippin........not super technical, but super fun for sure. Gets a little crowded, so watch the speed. Peace.........

Review: Easy fun ride. Good for a family ride (if you ride the paved path). Lots of bugs sometimes :)

Review: There are two ways to go from the La Loma Park. Golf Course and Orchard views 6 Miles round trip to the east from La Loma Park. Riverside and Park Scenery 3 Miles Round Trip to the West from La Loma Park I like how the single tracks run parallel to a paved path, where my kids & wife can ride.

Review: Nice for a local trail. Some of the trails flows nicely with just enough technicality for newbies to improve on. Stay off the paved trail as much as possible and you can have a blast!

Review: It's not the best trail,but it is a wonderful place to go after work or something.It's not too long, but you can do a couple laps and then you get a good enough workout.There are single trails, they are fun and not too hard.If you just want to go for a nice bike ride and relax this is the place for you.

Review: Giving it 10 on the Scrub scale. As a kid I never had a trail this good and still had a blast. As a Grommet this would be Epic. A couple of places made me pucker which is always cool

Review: this is a fun technical trail east of la loma park going towards claus rd. stay off the black top and look for trail heads over the riverbank and along the golf course bluffs. beautiful along the river with lots of shade and wildlife be careful along the river this singltrack can be tricky and dump you into 15 foot drop offs into the river. hot and good climbing along the golf course. you can keep doing laps and get a killer workout between the river and golf course. going west of la loma park is a bore. not enough singletracks with to many people.

Review: This trail gets weaker every year and we need to do something about it. About two months ago the city can in a bulldosed all the kickers, leaving us with two weak 15 foot drops. lets get tougher and built some jumps. anyone with a sac can e-mail me to get some jumps built at ccdogg67@sbcglobal.net let's ride

Review: this is a trail at the end of dry creek. i enter on my bike at the end of coffe road and go down the bridge and turn left. the starting trails r fun ni all but not as good as this one. towards theend you are forced to meed up with the paved road again, there ar small traisl on the left and a golf course on the rite. you will see a large dip with lots of vegetation hididng it. take the dip and u enter a trail that makes you feel secluded.

me and my buds are teenagers. i'm 15 so i dont like weak rides, we do the jumps and we have all fell our share of times. on the way back from this particular trail that i felt like naming "biff trail" i was pettling hella fast when my chain slipped and my toe caught the dirt and i went flying. i hit my knee and elbo but my knee took the brunt of the fall. it loked like a rasberry at first so we kept goin and went home (modesto) and a day later it was hella swollen! the bruse went all around my knee-cap and down my shin, all black and purple! it was crazy looking and when i steped i could feel the fluid from the swelling jiggle. as u can picture i didnt walk allot for a week and my mom wanted me to be more careful....yeah right. but the next time we went none of us fell so i think i actually took that advise. but dont let my fall discourage you...after all that hurt but my friend sailed rite down into the river, and his bike was heavy! haha funnest times i've had in a while

Review: A great aerobic, get out and ride trail. Granted not the most technical, but some fun winding up and down singletrack. Make sure to get off the paved track and explore all the different trails.

Review: The trail was beautiful. Very smooth tree-lined path running along the river with periodic benches and water fountains.
