Glen's Red Rock OSP ride report - Colorado Springs, CO -by Glen Kratz

After moving my son to the Springs we got a chance to get a ride in. We chose the Red Rocks because it was close by and it was recommended. We rented some Rock Hoppers from Criterium Bike (Great shop and highly recommend). All I can say is WOW and this is supposed to be the local easy trail. Besides having off the hook scenery and variations of vegetation, it has an unbelievable amount of trail variety to choose from. From easy wide groomed roads to super buffed fun single tracks. If you venture out of the park like we did you get into Section 16 where things get much more technical. They also have a great free ride park with all the basic wood features. There is also a jump section built in from the old quarry area. Since I had to get back to work my Son has had a chance to ride Palmer Park and had a blast and it is much more technical..I can't wait to get back!
