These trails and I are done. I received a "Criminal Trespass Warning" a while back for riding there. I've tried to stay there but can't seem to find a way to get in touch with the land owner. Apparently there have been some people riding and working out there since I am not allowed and telling people in Austin that "THEY" have some really fun trails in San Marcos that are next to the river. My buddy asks them if they built them, they say no, he says that I built them but he wouldn't recommend building or riding there and tells them what happened to me.
I've been on the hunt for a new spot. I thought I had a good place across the street from these but there are a few homeless people that live back there.
There is another spot that I scoped out last week but not really sure where would be a good place. Spots have a lot of rock or no rocks, downhill grade but I don't know if there is a water source anywhere close. My buddy said he'd show me a couple places where he rides his mountain bike, so hopefully that works out.
Other than that I've just been riding 9th in Austin. It seems like I do maintenance for over an hour and only get to ride for 30-45 minutes. Oh well, it is a good place where you will not get in trouble for riding or building jumps.

hey man whats up! I just moved to san marcos last spring, I heard about these trails the other day 9/21/08 and I went to ride them today (9/22/08), had a lot of fun, tried to get through the six pack with the wall ride but ended up crashing on the third jump and hurt my shin so I went home, on my way out me and my girlfriend were approached by a park ranger who said the land was private property, this really bummed me out. Anyway, are there certain times of day the rangers don't patrol so I can ride.....also if you need any help fixing the trails up (its kind of deteriorating) Im willing to help!
