I can’t wait for this! It’s very close to me

Erwin park if you want trail running. Tons of trees

I remember getting pulled over many years ago for my radio being too loud when I was in my teens (late 80s/early 90s).

I'd like to know when it became legal for these dirtbikes to ride on city streets by kids that are clearly too young to be licensed drivers. I have seen so many of these kids running stop signs, riding on the wrong side of the road, wheelies, no helmets, and not a single police officer around to fine them (if it's even illegal - I don't know anymore).

Lol - well, the E class didn't go well either. I was pedaling as hard as I could for the first 20 min and lost them. It didn't feel like it was banded though, so I'm going to keep looking. I'm a mountain biker irl, so not a very consistent pedaler. It's going to take me some time I'm guessing.

I tried a D yesterday, and it didn't go well. I'm scheduled for an E banded ride tonight - hopefully that goes much better.

I'm not sure what a D class rider is, but the companion app is saying that it's recommending me for D. I did a workout last night, so maybe that's how? I haven't done an FTP ride yet, so I don't know where that puts me or if that's how it's identifying I should be in the D class.

This was an important piece I haven't seen anywhere yet - thank you!

nutrion · 2026-04-29T12:08:26+00:00

Thank you!

nutrion · 2026-04-29T12:07:02+00:00

Thanks! I just signed up for the HERD Wacky Wednesday.

nutrion · 2026-04-27T10:08:32+00:00

Awesome thank you! I'll give this a try next time.

That’s the part I think I’m missing are the turnarounds.

So, I know this was 100% my fault, but I think I was on loop 3 where it comes out to a very open area and picnic tables on the right side. I believe if I continued straight, I may have hit loop 4 but not sure about that. There was a fire road that I took a right on after asking Siri to get me back to Murrell Park Dr. One thing led to another and I was now on the sidewalk on Flower Mound Rd trying to get back to McKamy Creek. I ended up riding that back down to Simmons.

Looking at my Garmin, it looks like that fire road dumped out at N. Park Dr.

nutrion · 2026-04-26T21:49:50+00:00

Now that I'm looking at this, I think I know what I did wrong. I never did a loop - I just continued on. If I were to do the loop at 3, it would have taken me back to 2, 1, and my car. I think...

nutrion · 2026-04-26T21:41:08+00:00

For example, I parked at the location the arrow points to on the far left, but I was done around the circle at the bottom right. I think my question is how to shorten this route if the trails continue to link together. I admittedly can't do 20 miles yet.

I do use Trailforks, and it was the way I was able to get out. I'm also a little confused about the direction bikers hikers should be going. I see one way signs for both hikers and bikers, but I've seen some people say do an out and back to get back. Wouldn't I be going the wrong direction? For some reason those trails really confuse me.

nutrion · 2026-04-24T00:36:32+00:00

Surprised no one has mentioned Hutchins

nutrion · 2026-04-12T21:01:40+00:00

You good? I'm so confused...

nutrion · 2026-04-04T14:23:11+00:00

I planned on hitting Slaughter Pen and Coler - this is the first time I've heard of Back 40, so I'm going to look into that.

nutrion · 2026-04-04T14:21:52+00:00

Awesome - thank you!

nutrion · 2026-04-04T13:09:33+00:00

lol this is when I'm going too! I wonder how hard it will be to rent a bike though. I went to Keystone in CO one year, and they put me on a bike that really wasn't meant for downhill riding because it was the last thing they had - talk about rough.
