Weekend Warrior Summary:
Lots of different terrain packed into a short-ish ride. Great fun for SS. Get's pretty muddy, but still fun and not very technical. Recommended Route:
Every which way but loose. Other recommended trails in the same area:

Weekend Warrior Summary:
i think this park and trail is a great for those who are needing to get out and have a good time. the flat trail follows the creek and the hills are a great work out. but not to bad for those who are not in the best shape and skilled. Recommended Route:
does'nt matter where to start. the park workers told me they are working on and adding better markers for the trails . heres a link for the maps. .http://www.stccparks.org/qrmap.htm

Cross Country Rider Summary:
"Why haven't I brought my bike out here before?" was what I found myself saying repeatedly as I rode the trails at Quail Ridge. Like a Castlewood for St. Charles County (CW River Scene & Stinging Nettle Trails, with a little Grotpeter thrown in for good measure).
I gave it a 3 on aerobic, but you can make it more difficult by riding it faster ;-)
It's not really technical, you can bomb down just about all the hills on the west side without fear of what you'll hit at the bottom.

Cross Country Rider Summary:
a very fun network of trails. the climbs are more technical than long. a lot of variety of terrain, and lots of sweet creek crossings and switchbacks to keep you entertained. a good trail to ride on a singlespeed on.
a very impressive park on the whole. St. Charles is becoming its own center for riding now, what with This trail, Matson Hill, Lost Valley, and soon to have Klondike... totally sweet. Recommended Route:
i dunno, just go Other recommended trails in the same area:
matson hill, lost valley

Cross Country Rider Summary:
This trail was a lot of fun. There weren't any lung-busting climbs, but plenty of technical climbs. there are a lof of enjoyable creek crossings, and plenty of switchbacks. A good trail for singlespeeds, as i rode it on a SS having never done a SS ride before.
I have to give "mad props" out to GORC for doing a great job with the trail, and the great work they've been doing with opening more and more trails in the st. charles area. St. Charles soon seems to be as good a place to ride by itself as the rest of st louis.
The rest of the park seems to be really sweet too, what with the fenced area for dogs, the paved trail, and all the space that is available in general. Recommended Route:
Having only ridden it once, I can't give a definite route, but there are plenty of interconnecting trails to keep you occupied (and happy). I say keep riding till you get hungry. Other recommended trails in the same area:
in St. Charles, you have Matson Hill, Lost Valley, and soon to have Klondike (which i hear good things about)
