  1. We are a couple of new (to dirt) riders looking for some easy fire roads or trails to get our feet wet on the weekends. The past two weeks we've gone out to Pine Valley and rode south taking the quick loop back to the parking area, but I'm curious if any of you have some suggestions for some easy local rides we can do. I'm on a KTM 450EXC and she's on a DR200. They're both plated but we prefer to pack the bikes in the back of the truck if there is any significant amount of freeway riding. We could connect to a trail via side streets, but our bikes don't really like 55mph. Any suggestions for some safe and obvious routes around the county? Thanks in advance! Chris
  2. This sounds like a good run for us. I found the wildlife refuge, which looks like where we could park the truck and unload, but I'd like to positively identify the route before we commit to it. Looking on street view, all of the little trails on the map appear to be on private property with gates at the entrances.
