We don't have a lot of legal single track in our area. Mount Diablo State Park has a few trails and we thought we would give the Oyster Point Trail a try today. It was freakishly steep. We climbed 340 feet in four tenths of a mile and we didn't get anywhere near the top of the ridge. We decided to bag the single track. It was a gnarly little trail, truly single track with some exposure, some roots, lots of ruts and did I mention really steep? I'm happy to say I rode down it. Going up, I didn't know if I could manage the down. It surprised Thom that I didn't walk it Happily, there are also a lot of fire roads in this area that crisscross between Diablo State Park and Morgan Territory Regional Preserve. We headed off on those and still got in a good ride.
We're going to try Oyster Point from it's other side and see if that is anymore fun.
