Heading to Princeton for the long weekend from Jul.31-Aug.4. Anyone know of good riding spots around there? I have no clue whats up there! Any info would be great.

Thanks!

Maybe you could check out "Tanglewood Hill" located near Blakeburn on the Lodestone lake road.I've heard there's riding there but I haven't seen it for myself.

the summerland trail network almost connects to the osprey lake/chain lake area if thats where youre close to. its pretty obscure to find it but once you have it just keeps going and going.pm me if youre going that way and i will give directions, if you meet the skill testing questions that is.

How far of a drive from Princeton to Osprey? I might make a trip up there as well if I have time.

from the town of princeton its about 45 min toward summerland onthe old princeton summerland hwy, or you can just ride the kvr after getting around the new bridge in town. Its probably not worth the drive if you are staying in town though. it isn't marked trail or staging. I seem to remember the fsr just coming into town that linked together if you just wanted to go for a boot close by. Also there may still be a mx track at the fair grounds just up the hill on the princeton summerland hwy( where there is a track up country there is usually trail for the locals to ride to it)

my 2 bits for what its worth
