Weekend Warrior Summary: This is a very root filled trail and I do not recommend it for mtn biking. It has beautiful views for hiking but is not suitable for mountain biking.

Weekend Warrior Summary: This trail is all roots-if you are thinking about riding it just hike it first to see what you are up against. The begining of the trail has huge drops and must be walked down because at the bottom of the dropoff is about 50-75 feet of huge roots that cannot be navigated. Recommended Route: I recommend a different trail.

Cross Country Rider Summary: A little wet today and a little slick...wait, really slick, wait until it's pretty dry or you will spend your ride slipping over roots(trail has a ton of them). Forget going uphill when it is wet and hike it, dry and those that love technical ascents will love this. If you have any skills then going downhill should be no problem wet or dry, just take it slow when wet to ensure that you dont plunge down the side of a cliff. This entire trail runs on the side of a mountain with the edge of the track being a drop of anywhere between 100 and 200 feet depending on where you are. I personally wont ride it again unless it's dry, but either way I had a lot of fun. Decending the trail was a blast, I was going really cautious like, but the downhill part is almost half the trail. You spend the first half of the ride going uphill and the second half going downhill followed by a half mile hike up to the end of the loop.(too wet to ride)
Have fun, definately give it a try.

Cross Country Rider Summary: Uh, look this trail wasn't what I expected. Of course I should have paid closer attention to the prior reviews, but I didn't. Less than a mile in it's all roots, okay if you have full suspension or a decent fork, but not for middle and lower end bikes. If I were you, just don't do it right now, unless you are really pumped.
It reminded me of something out of those hard core biker videos from BC, I might be a wimp but I turned around after a mile. You will not clean the downhill of this trail, if you do, you should be a pro. Recommended Route: Another trail

, from Mililani Summary: Yes---very very rooty with steep dropoffs on the side---yet if you've been riding much at all you will not find it extreme. But there is a lot of hike a bike due to felled trees, if it's been raining, and the one big rutted area not far from the start. There are way more fun places to ride on Oahu--therefore only 3 fat tires overall. Recommended Route: It's a loop. But be sure where it branches to stay on the loop or you'll end up in a military land nav restricted area. Other recommended trails in the same area: Pupukea
