Monte Sano has a lot of variety to offer. They have the really simple "Family Bike Trail" but they have the trails for the more daring and more technical rides the "The Sinks". I love coming out a riding because there is always a trail to ride depending on how i'm feeling for the day.

I noticed that this trail system is listed as 10 miles of doubletrack. Don\'t be mislead. Although, there is some doubletrack available, the entire trail system shouldn\'t by any means be considered doubletrack. One example, the goat trail is a great example of the singletrack one can expect to find on Monte Sano. I recently acquired a GPS and have started making tracks of some of mnt top trails as well as the lower eastern trails (mountain mist / sinks). Currently, I\'m in the process of reviewing the rules for submission, and I\'m making the necessary adjustments to my tracks before submitting them. I also hope to collect much more data that will include the land trust trail system. These trails are great and a perfect mixture of fun and challenge awaits. Here is one of the local bike shops tips. (select rides, the look for land trust or Monte Sano) http://www.bicyclesetc.us/ Here is a great map of the Monte Sano/Land Trust trail system. Warning some of the trails are very technical and descend several hundred feet very quickly. http://www.briartech.com/msonesht.pdf

Love this trail. When I go to my grandparents house, who live on Monte Sano I always go and ride it. Very rocky but the challenge is outweighed by the fun. Your on top of a mountain how call is that.
