I need to know the best trails to ride. I have been looking on singletracks for some of the research, but it would be nice to have someone actually tell me what they enjoy. I plan on traveling out of Milwaukee, if the trail is worth it. I am going to be in Milwaukee in september. I need to know the best trails to ride.

That's totally fine! I know the feeling!! Thanks for the awesome write up and the sweet video! “So after a lot of rambling and bragging I notice there’s not much point to this post other than I enjoy my local trails.”

I might be a little biased, but the trails there are fantastic on a Midwest scale, with some steep hills to climb, great views from the cliff tops, some serious exposure, and a good dose of rocks and bridges thrown in. Definitely very different than the trails you featured in this post (not very many jumps) If you haven’t ridden there yet, Levis Mounds is definitely worth a trip.

Once to Blue Mounds, once to the Kettle Moraine, but my need for gnar is satisfied at home; why go elsewhere?

Where else in WI can you get a sculpted man-made playground for mountain bikes and wooden features like these?

I am not as fortunate from an employer standpoint, but I do love our local trails and pitch in to help build & maintain. Not only is it just a great thing to do, it can give you a higher sense of ownership and pride about your local trails. I helped rebuild a bridge this past weekend, and now every time I go over it I will know "I did that". Great post and a great setup in which you have found yourself.
