Summary:
There have been some major improvements to this trail. The local biking club has logged a lot of hours on it and has had considerable cooperation from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The trail now has some new bridges and bench cuts and the whole loop is long enough to spend a good amount of time out there. It is a very scenic trail running along beautiful Lake Shelbyville. The terrain has a little bit of everything and a begginer loop has been created to get people familiar with the sport. There are hills, creek crossings, technical sections, and all around fast sections for good racing. It will be interesting to see what this years race (Rough Cut Classic) will be like with the new and lengthened loop. Very satisfying and worth the drive. There are picnic tables, bathrooms and a pavilion for the whole family to enjoy.

Summary:
Not very technical. Good place to take a newbie starting out. When this trail was started it meandered through a flat and boring wooded area. Since then the fine folks at CIMBA have added some small rolling hills to the mix. I've heard that more trails will be added in the future. Suggestion: Use as much of the lake coves and valleys as possible. There's enough flat trail already. This area has potential.

Recommended Route:
I've found that it's easiest to ride ON the trail itself.

Summary:
The singletrack here is really sweet it was well built and sheds the water off good. Rolling hills, nice switchbacks, decent climbs. Good place for beginners to learn, but still fast and challenging enough to satisfy most. The worst thing about camfield is it is not long enough.(YET!)

Recommended Route:
I would suggest doing the whole loop if it is not to wet. Water tends to stand in the grassy sections. On days when it is wetter I would suggest out and back on the singletrack.

Summary:
Went down for a well attended workday today (found it amusing that the four people who weren't helping on trail day, but just riding, were bike shop employees). This trail system has a lot of potential, but is very nice for the relatively short amount of single track so far (awaiting clearance for further building). Some decent short steep hills, rollers, and twisty singletrack, with potential for much more. Kudos to a very concerted effort by a few people in Cimba for realizing a very nice riding area for many others. Quite picturesque setting also by Lake Shelbyville.

Recommended Route:
Stick to the singletrack

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Same area? Nothing within 60 miles.
