Grew up in Grand Prairie wish this stuff was around back then. I mtb now but Arlington is out of my way. Looks like a great beginner trail to relax and enjoy riding.
I’d check out the Oakcliff Nature Preserve trail if you have not done so already. About 8 miles if I remember correctly. More technical to be sure with some decent drops. A well maintained trail but it is in Oakcliff so if you’re going by yourself make sure you’re gone by the time it gets dark.
man just got a used full suspension bike and cant wait to try the trails here. They are up the street from me. I know i wont be rolling as fast as you but im all game. I will check out grapevine too. good vid!

In his defense all those people were going extremely slow (Way too slow for a public trail) it was hard for him not too. He wasn't going that fast at all for a mtb'er. Everyone has to share the trail and those who want to move at 1 mile per hour have to make sure they leave room for people moving at normal speed. Allot of these guys were not being considerate for people behind them. I'm pretty slow on a mtb but even at my speed I would have been frustrated with half these people most of them should have been on a normal asphalt trail (not a trail like this it was made for mountain bikers first) which Arlington has had for over 2 decades since the 90's.
It's a beginner trail, not an intermediate or advance trail. Good for normal people that just want a relax mtb ride through a trail. We need a bunch of all the trails not just hard challenging ones.
Wm he did it without stopping except for people in way and no water for 10 mile run !! I was quiet impressed ty for video

Thanks for the tip, I rode it several times already but I don't go there often because of the same reason 😁.

Really nice trail to start with, Horseshoe and Northshore are nice too.

That's great! Start slow and easy, familiarize the trail, the more you know the trail, the faster you'll get. Enjoy your rides!
Thanks for the video. Gonna check out this trail someday. I hope I don’t get run over by you though.
Don't worry I don't run over other riders, I normally wait till they get the chance to move to the side😁
While watching your video I got so excited I had to go take a crap.
Dayum boi
This is why I installed a bell on my bike. Lets ppl know you're coming up behind them.
Yeah, Im really impressed with his attempt to finish this run 20 seconds faster than a 10-year-old! What a champ.
Bells suck. Better to announce yourself so they know a.) that a human is coming down the trial, and b.) what side of the trail you're on.
Did it have any good drops? Hard to tell
It has some in skilz loop, EKG(closed during this ride) and fun town, but mostly flat, fun trail though.
I've also got an older video at RLP. ua-cam.com/video/j5BEPcsy6ZI/v-deo.html
What bike you on?
Scott Spark RC 900 full carbon with enve m50 wheelset
@@texastrailrides3314 5k for that bike.
@@lambertj.2892 sure! Let me know
this is a family friendly trial. You aren't getting a trophy at the end. Stop running people off the road.

The trail looks... boring.
It’s not it’s flowy
The expert trail which was closed in this video, is pretty damn thrilling .
He skipped all the best parts
boring for you but fun for others. to each their own.
