Summary:
Defintely nothing technical about the island. Respect the walking paths and stick to the dirt roads and paths. Check out the South side of the Island where you can do some exploring. Overall, I say air up the tires, take off the bash ring, put on your big chain ring and ride the island. Its a good place to practice your trackstands etc, but your bike will be more for transportation rather than recreation.

Recommended Route:
No particular trails. There is a dirt path/road that runs along Rodman's Hollow. Nothing technical, but great views.

Summary:
This trail isn't really for hardcore MTBers. I mean, there are paths, but nothing that you could call technical. The areas where some really fun biking could be done are off limits to bikers, and BI takes conservation VERY seriously. My recommendation is to ride a road bike around the island and hike the hollow.

Recommended Route:
Begin at the entrance to Rodman's Hollow and follow the trail to the cliff (don't fall off). There are some short side trails to explore, but bikes are not allowed in the really fun areas.
