Summary:
This trail is mostly for casual riders. It is very lengthy and hooks up with other paved trails throughout the city. It is all blacktop and is great for both fast riders and ma & pa strolls. The only challenge you'll have is bucking the wind on some of the areas near the lakes, no hills at all.

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Single track riders head up just a couple miles to the north and ride on the Theodore Wirth Park trail. It is a new track (2005) that provides a great challenge through a dense forest.

Summary:
Very fun

Recommended Route:
I park at the office building in the back and go around brownie lake, cross over railroad tracks(under bridge) and follow the path going towards the city, then take the path behind the the woods going the opposite way until you get to a crossing for cars. On your left there will be some very nice trails and jumps. Must recommend.

Summary:
If you're some sort of beginner there's a small area that works great for the tech'riding.

Recommended Route:
If your'e already on two wheels then aproach this from downtown,that way you can take a good look at what won't be there.There's a paved path from the backside of that parking garage on7'th-n-1'st.If you have any kinks in the system, then this short jaunt will give you a chance to get rid of them

Other recommended trails in the same area:
NOT REALLY

Summary:
Cedar Lake has some fun stuff alright, watch out for civilians though! The singletrack loop around Brownie Lake is pretty cool. On the side by the office building is some new singletrack, awesome stuff, technical and one huge log crossing and no hikers on this stuff!

Recommended Route:
east side of Cedar Lake

Summary:
At the bridge underpass, look to the north and aim it towards the undulating singletrack. Your riserbars must get nicked your your going too slow. This section finnishes FAST, so carry up the hill and cross the hiway on the pavement. Dip into the forest with a burning desire to burn one on top... and EXPLORE! some sections are best when hooked up with others, it's up to you to like what you do. This will take you near the BOG, so be nice to hikers and their dogs (mainly on the wood-chippy stuff). Follow along northbound and cross Glenwood. Take it left and on the right see the trail - be the trail. Some locals will try and try again to clean certain sections all the way through, but remember, less gears, more beers. You will not want to cross 55 on a red light. so go and feed the tight trails on the left with some of your most color explitives, it's good and it's what we got close to home. Well then just watch for the beachcombers and do it again on the way out. it's good that good thing's still happen.

Recommended Route:
I like to warm up with some laps around the bmx course between the rails and the lake. Then I dip past the Mud Pit to chat with the "crazy counter guy," then a heads up ride along the lake to the main Cedar Trail.
