Monroe Truck Trail is a great workout that rewards you with a long downhill the way you came. Roughly 7 miles of trail that varies from singletrack to fireroad, It can get sandy but there are no real scary features, just plenty of speed. Most ride up and then back down, but you can shuttle it and there are occasionally shuttle services running on the weekend. Bottom section is loose rocks, but the rest is your standard Southern California dirt and sand. Most sections are exposed, so this trail gets very hot during the summer and does not offer much of a breeze.
Access Info
Shuttles provided by Crazy Bear Bikes.
At the bottom of Glendora Mountain Road, the very first switchback you will see a white gate. At the top, a little past the cal-trans storage shed there is a dirt parking lot with gate.
