Summary:
Underdevelopped park in suburban PG. Trails aren't the best, but are fun if you live nearby. Lots of singletrack, some interesting sections, some fast sections. Actually alot of trail for how small the park is. Nothing really hard tho. This is the last place I would be scared to go. I'll ride here at night by myself and look for thuglife, so don't be scared.

Recommended Route:
Doesn't matter, small area with lots of fun trails, just pick and go. I think the best ones are around the lake and climbing away from it into the woods.

Jug Bay is ok, Cedarville is fun.

Recommended Route:
Start at the Bird house and ride the 1st dh turn left and head stright up the gully from there you can take the long or short way down to the lake either cross the lake towards the power lines and ride that side.

Summary:
No it isn't a very long course but it can be alot of fun if you leave the lake area. Not challenging enough? Try going faster. It takes a little imagination but we have found some really fun little spots here. Also a great trail running spot (probably a better trail running spot than a cycling spot) And Mr. Thuglife? Only run-ins I have ever had were with uptight horse people. If Cosca is your "turf" you must be a pretty pathetic thug. What do you guys do? Hit a blunt and then go knock down some 40s at the Farmer's Market?
Give it a shot if you are nearby. I find it alot more fun than Cedarville down the road. Maybe I missed something there though. It seemed very sedate.

Recommended Route:
Take singletrack along stream to back area. Cool down around lake. Nice washed out trails run parallel to lake. small but fun.

Summary:
I like to ride around the lake for a pleasant mostly-non-paved trail with little to contend with other than some bridges and roots. There are lots of more technical trails leading off in the woods proper, so it's worth checking out to see what trails you can find other than the obvious.
Personal note: I've lived near this park my entire life so I'm quite fond of it in general. I've never had any problems there.

Recommended Route:
I've tended not to do much exploring and just park at the parking lots near the playground and go around the lake, to the nature center, etc; I'm a beginning mountain biker, though.

Summary:
Not the longest, or most technicle trails, but a fun place. if you push yourself, poke around a little to find all the different trails, and lighten up a little, there is definently fun to be had. There's a nice set of dirt jumps here also. Don't be paranoid wus either, your not going to get shot.
