Like he said, it's dry and hot. A list of places I know of in the short time I've been riding there.
Vortex-A downhill run with high berms on each turn which makes it kind of like a bobsled run.
Shyst-A slightly technical loop with some tight turns and lots of up and down.
Cliff's Cliff- A nice climb with some pretty tight uphill turns.
Hale Bopp- a laid back ride that becomes slightly technical toward the end.
California 56-simply beautiful
MCC loop
Act of faith
River Trail- a really easy long trail that leads to many of the aforementioned trails and gives a good view of the river as it runs along it.
Highlander
I can't think of anymore right now. Have fun and bring plenty of water as it is supposed to be around 100 today. The natural canopy of the high treetops provides some degree of shade.
Those trails are hard because there are many climbs that you don't get a chance to build up speed beforehand. Act of Faith is cool and makes for a fun but not overly difficult climb. Do you do the group ride with the Waco Bicycle club? It's a lot of fun. If you do, chances are we've met and don't know it. PM me if you ever want to ride together. It sounds as though we may be about the same skill level.
