First let me start by saying that I love biking in CT. I live in Trumbull and have been here for a little over 12 years. I bike Pequonnock /Indian Ledge a few times a week and probably head up to Rockland at least two to three times a month (hour+ drive).
Recently my girlfriend has expressed an interest in mountain biking. She's come up to Kingdom Trails with me a few times and rented a bike. She's been pretty capable of handling herself but steers away from a lot of the technical/rougher stuff. She isn't a fan of Trumbull at all. She likes trails that are a lot better groomed and flowy, and after a few trips with her to KT I can see why.
I'd really like her to continue to get into biking so i'm on the hunt for trails that would be closer to what she liked in VT. Something that doesn't have too much tech, but is pretty fast and flowy with decent sized berms, maybe a few jumps, moderately sized skinnies/bridges, and limited climbing. I'm not looking for a downhill course, but i'm hoping I can find something that isn't too XC either.
I've biked all over CT, but I'm sure I haven't seen everything. I have yet to come across what she's looking for an could use some advice.
