    Ridgeline at Balm Boyette. Prickly Pear at JD

      Yeah ridgeline is such a great loop. Prickly Pear has something for everyone. A beginner can do it and if you have more skill, you can make some of the obstacles seem way bigger and more fun than they are.

      Half pipe is also one of my favorites at JD, but it's super short. Maybe of you combine the skinnies, with half pipe and the table top sessions, then you have another great section.

    Hi… visit North Port. Three trails here. My trail is Hillsborough, and then there’s the Environmental state park, and the oldest and toughest trail… PBR (high school trails)
    My favorite Florida trail though, is CRP in Alva

    • @kfivemtb
      @kfivemtb  Рік тому +1

      Wow I haven’t ridden any of those! I’ll do some research and see if I can get on it!!

    • @HillsberryMTB
      @HillsberryMTB Рік тому

      The North Port trails are just some cool local trails… we are off exit 179 Toledo blade. Below our trails there’s CRP In Alva (north Fort Myers(awesome state park)). Then further south in Naples there’s a couple local trails. That’s it south of Tampa on this side of Florida. Usually riders south of us ride CRP or our trails rather than making the trip up to Tampa area trails.

    Great video. Ridgeline at Boyette is, in my opinion, the best single track trail segment in the state. 1.8 mile option that is guaranteed to test your fitness and tell you where it stacks. I can't think of another trail that can do that...maybe Moonscape, before it was made to be a flow track or jump line, or Rollercoaster which is always a fun rip. Twisted Sister is a great segment, as is Magic Island, but I like to categorize that in to "North Creek with the hard options". I saw Gun Range at Markham in the comments, which is super fun, and Graham Swamp is a fun loop too...Santos has a ton of fun loops, like Vortex or Nayles, but I don't think anything gets the HR going like Ridgeline. Also, it only used to open twice a year but Hailes Trails is a good one.

    • @kfivemtb
      @kfivemtb  2 місяці тому +1

      You are spot on! I love ridgeline. Ride it a few times back to back on a pedal back and you’ll be whipped. I do think my favorite trail in Florida is Gatorback at Alafia. Although it’s short has tons packed in to it!!!🤘🏻
