If you want to have a challenging ride this is not the place to go, but it is a fun ride. On the yellow loop there are some awesome jumps and some good downhills. the Red loop is a bit more challenging, but again is mainly fun(would not reccomend red for your first few mt. bike rides)Overall a great ride.

Thunderbird lake trails are much more difficult and for more experienced riders. I definitely recommend it.

Not a very challenging trail, however it does have good flow compared to clearbay. The section after the over and under would be awesome with a berm. Very well maintained and not overly groomed. Like the sand because it teaches you to corner better. The red loop has 6' foot drop potential, you just have to make your own line. I even chundered a fork out there! It seems like a huge task to get new trails built around here! Probably my misconception. I hate how you have to label yourself as a specic type of rider to to do a review. Ride hard and dont skid

This Trail is great. It is long, challenging, great jumps, curves, and you get some mega speed in some areas. I think OEF has done an excellent job with these trails. I believe all three trails together is a little over 13 miles long, and there's something here for everyone.

basically i rode this area about 4 times... never tookthe bike out of the big ring... it is fast as you want, not extremely technical at all, i did say fast...kinda reminds me of upper part of monte sano, or tsali speed wise but without the climbs.........i gota give it a five bc i am familiar with the terrain in the area adn i think the earthriders did a great job... very well maintaned.. congrats....thanks for the fun

i guess yell, grn, red... do em all take a break and do it again

Rode once, very boring!!! Did green then straight to red (couldn't find the yella; or maybe I just missed it because I fell asleep on the ride) I really don't think the red can be considered expert; it has two small descents NOT drops @ 50-60 degree. Too much sand just enough to irritate me, not make the ride more challenging (in fact I thought I spotted some camels). I saw many locals ride for 20 min (that's two-zero, then leave, not worth getting lost on the way there bacause you thought Post rd was Poll rd, or was it the other way around. Overall I thought it was a ghetto trail ( boy don't I sound cynical).

Still looking

I ride extensively throughout Texas: Rocky Hill Ranch, Warda, Flat Rock Ranch, DORBA Trail, San Angelo S.P., Cameron Park, McAllister Park, & Mule Shoe Bend. Cactus, Rocks, sand, sun & big hill climbing. Everytime I'm on one of these trails I always wonder if anyone has ever cut a smooth, flowing trail thought the dense tree cover, with banked turns, so you can ride really fast, and the trail has limited roots & rocks so the grip keeps you from washing out. In otherwords, a flowing ride, that is more track than trail, that last for a cou[ple of hours that you can ride day or night and it never seems to end. You keep looking for the the big climbs and big rocks but they never come up. NuDraper Trail is the trail. I discovered this gem in December one Saturday morning. I ran into Martin (OEF) and his wife Candy, and he led me on the tour of the three loops. We were out for nearly two hours and the trail never seemed to end. You can really move through the trees (like downhill skiing) like flags as you bank from side to side. It was a real B-L-A-S-T. A hardtail is all you need here but a lot of folks seemed to have full suspension bikes. Martin was good company and I will be back for sure in late spring when things green up. Thanks Martin.

This is a fun trail to ride, not very technically challenging, but I was sure a challenge to my lung capacity and to my leg strength due to the switchbacks that force you to mash on the pedals to keep your pace up! All trails a marked extremely well and most challenging obstacles are marked well in advance. The OEF has done a great job with this property.

Ride the green trail as a warmup, the ride the yellow. Signage at trailhead will give you the directions to follow.

We went out with the family of two adults and a 10 and 7 year old. What a blast! We took the green trail. After reading the reviews I think I'll stay on green for quite a while. My daughter had some trouble on the hills but one can always walk a bike for a bit when needed. I appreciate the white trail bail out points for the very beginners which we are. Great trail!

Green is the only one I've tried so far.

the first two mile loop is fast tight and technical. It has small jumps, trees in the shape of 'V's that you have to ride through the middle of(pinball area). Towards the middle of the two mile loop there is a nice 4 foot drop off called the snow cone.(fun at high speed). The two mile loop ends at another section of the fire road mentioned before. this is the point of no return. next is a 6 1/2 mile loop it is just as fun as the 2 mile loop except the obsticles are further appart. There are a few nicely large sand pits in here that require a good spin and balance. Lots of fun. The whole facility keeps getting better every time I go back. Since my first time out there they have installed a parking lot and it looks like they are cuttin out an area for picknick tables and BBQ-ers.

old draper for the hard core only. Be ready to peel spider webs off of your helmet and face. some really good drop-ins. No big jumps though.

Draper is a good ride to go all out on. It is close to 9 miles of singletrack that twists up and down the hill with sand, jumps, logs, tight tree passages and a few good dropoffs. There are no steep climbs though there is a long one that will test your balance in the sand. It is probably one of the best for anyone close to the city. The trails are marked well and they are mowing turnouts for those that do not want to ride out the entire trail. Benches are on the way and I think I heard mention of Port-A- Potty facilities. Try to go after a mild rain. This trail drains well and the sand is always easier. I will give it a 4 just because it lacks those technical challenges that make you feel like you have mastered the Earth.
