Cool rides
Here in the Bay Area, we have some of the best riding anywhere. The Demo Forest, El Corte de Madera, Saratoga Gap, the list goes on and on. Here are some of our favorite rides from around here -- and beyond:


2004 Mountain Epics
They're not the Downieville Classic, but these three big rides are put on by the same folks and should be just as cool. Maybe cooler!

Porcupine Rim Trail, Moab
The Porcupine Rim Trail is one of those must-do, life-list rides. An all-star crew hit it on DH bikes, with a little help from a van.

Corte de Madera Reserve- Resolution to the Leaves
At El Corte de Madera, the fun begins almost immediately after you leave your car. You cruise through the gate, spin along a short dirt road then dive right into long, swoopy singletracks. You turn around trees and hop over rocks as you flit and flutter from Skyline Road to the bottom of the drainage. The temperatures are comfy, and the fall moisture should keep the dust down. The only bummer is, you have to climb back to your car. Gimme the rest!


Santa Teresa Park - Rocky Ridge and Stile Ranch trails
Santa Teresa County Park rolls through the hills 10 miles south of downtown San Jose. This park's proximity to civilization makes it the perfect spot for a quick loop or two. When time is tight but the trails have to be right, give Santa Teresa a shot. Sock it to me!


The Shells, Foster City
If you're an expert jumper, or if you just want to work on your berms, rollers and doubles at a nice spot on the Bay, come on out to The Shells.





Tunnel Trail, Santa Barbara
If you're looking for rocky rocks and steep steeps in a beautiful setting, Santa Barbara is tastier than dog-bakery treats, which they sell downtown. Just beware the hikers. Show me, don't tell me!

Stay tuned for more cool rides!
