Don't let a little rain ruin your ride This 5-mile intermediate loop connects Baker Creek Preserve with the all-weather trails at The Drop Inn and Marie Myers Park.

Climb Red Bud Crest before enjoying the flowing descents of Party in the Woods and Soups On. With approximately 750 feet of climbing, expect a fun mix of sustained climbs, berms, and fast, playful singletrack.

This route is a great option when traditional dirt trails are too wet to ride. Check current trail conditions before heading out, as portions of the route may be closed following heavy rain.
