Taylor reservoir?

[slowandlow]

I will be camping at Taylor reservoir with some friends, they are running the show or I would have chosen someplace else.

They don't ride but I can't go longer than a couple of days without being on my bike.

Any suggestions for rides close to the lake?
I'm ok with dirt/jeep road climbs as long as I can get some miles.
Looking for 15 - 20 miles stuff, on a HT.

Thanx!

Timberline trail and a spur of the CO trail off of Texas Creek. Doctor's Park. Look in the sticky for trail suggestions and/or a Lat 40 map.

Was hoping someone had some first hand suggestions.

LOL just did a google search on some of your suggestions and got several hits in mtbr forums.
If I search using the mtbr search I get nothing.


Thanx!

Well at least you found what I was talking about. Doctor's is riding real good right now. Here is a link to the other ride I was talking about if you didn't find it.

It's not trail but in a pinch riding up the Texas Creek is at least scenic- but could be full of ATVs and other traffic (car/camper) making it a dusty nightmare.

Another option is riding up Tincup pass or in that area- not actually at the lake but not too far away. You friends could hike and sight see up in that area while you ride and get yer fix.

Cool!

Thanx all!

+1 on the Timberline trail. Really cool although it's been a while since I've been on it and the moto's may have chewed it up pretty nasty.
