• 007 in Oakhurst, California
I recommend that you start at the top. Ride all three legs of 007 and judge for yourself. If you wanted to ride only the lower 2 sections then you'll know how far you need to ride up Central Camp road to get to each trail head. Watch for rattlesnakes. Almost ran over one on the lower s...

• Aliso Mixed in Aliso Viejo, California
There are many places to explore in this park. Mathis if you want fast downhill or a long burn uphill. Rock-It is a great singletrack/technical but I couldn't imagine going up it. The meadows are a little more relaxing but still give you a workout.
