A mountain bike trail only in the fact that bikes are allowed there.
The Good:
Tons of parking.
Great trail markings. Map at every numbered intersection.
The bad:
As wide as a car in most places, no real single track path to follow.
Unmaintained - downed trees, and lots of overgrowth.
Trail surface consists of wet leaves, grass, swamp, sticks, etc... Very little actual hard pack.
Conclusion;
Mostly green trails, a few tough climbs, a couple small downhill sections. Pretty standard XC ski trail topography, but very little bike specific maintenance or support.
If you like riding XC ski trials, try Cadillac Pathway, or much of the Big M.
If you like flowing single track, make the drive to Arcadia dunes (best trail in the area IMHO.)
For long epics, either ride the full Big M loop, or the MTB legal sections on the NCT.
