DJ Powerline starts from Valley Ridge residential SW and follows the south portion of Valley Ridge westwards eventually joining up with Rich's Better Half (aka Rich's Ridge). Green single track trail, fun and relaxing but with very narrow gaps in the trees for your handlebars, better bring that old 90's mountain bike with the 660 mm or less handle bars
Great access to the top of VR Pump and Jump and an easy green run looping back to Rich's Better Half. Unsanctioned trail but in great condition!
This trail is unsanctioned.

Now that I live in Valley Ridge, I've been exploring these trails. A bit overgrown in places, and some very tight trees. Today was all dry and nice riding. Any recommendations?
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
