Where are some good woods riding areas around Houston? I am hooking up with a buddy to ride the 11th/12th of August. I have heard that the nat. forest is good, but have never been there.
I'd say I'm an intermediate rider (4 yrs) and find that the "forest" is a great place to ride. Mostly 2 - 3 gear stuff with some 1st and other. Make sure you call before you go to see if the trials are open (936-344-6205). Try to go with someone who has been there before, trails are EXTENSIVE (ie - you can get lost!!).
That time of year it will be D*** hot, bring lots of water and get to the triail head at 7am and be done by 11 or 12.
Thanks for the good feedback! Anyone want to join us? We are looking for a weekend of riding and knocking back a few brewskies. Nothing serious, just knocking out the cobwebs. We figured on camping out Friday and Saturday night.
