      Elena Gallegos has some of the easiest/smoothiest trails. Great for beginners like me. They do go up hill but also lot's of great down hills. There's quit a bit of traffic on a Sunday morning but not enough to mess with your ride. Good folks all around.

      For a quick/fun/easy ride I suggest parking by 305A and start there.
      My suggested path: (basically traverse south,go up hill, traverse north, come down the hill)
      305A.
      First left up 342
      Stay right up 341
      Down 230
      Left on 342
      Down 141
      Repeat?
