Comment on Evolution of Candler’s / LU mountain bike trails – Part II by admin

The Outer Loop aka the Perimeter Trail is a fun longer ride for sure. And it can be ridden either way to throw in some variety and challenge. I think it’s a little harder going the opposite direction, but I’m not sure if that’s just because the one way is more familiar. Sorry to hear about the surgery, Steve, and I hope your recovery is going well. Know what it’s like to have to recover and not be able to ride. Here’s to fast healing! There is a lot of mountain still to explore when you’re back on the bike.

I absolutely love the Liberty Trail system. Unfortunately I am unable to ride for quite some time due to recent surgery, I am in love with what we call the Outer Loop. We start on the Dam Trail, and follow it to 5 points, then down Downhill Run, to Paw-Paws Trail, to a Walk in the Park, to Great Escape, up Hydeaway, to the Lake Trail (we either make a right on the Lake Trail which is open again) or ride around Lake Trailthrough Lasso to A Trail To Far and then down Candler’s Mt. Rd.I am going to miss that mountain while I heal. However, I want to thank Lars for the trail system. I am as amateur a rider as there is but if there is a work day and I can help, I would love to.

[...] In an epic race one doesn’t get to pick the weather. It’s rain or shine. See the 2009 Middle Mountain Momma XXC race. So this is good training. Additionally, I want to make a living (or something) writing and talking [...]
