Where to Ride
Trails and back roads you can reach from our front door, with maps you can load on your phone or bike computer.
Good riding starts right here.
Jacksonville sits at the edge of the Siskiyou foothills. Within a couple of miles of the shop there's a city forest park full of singletrack, the mountain above it, a network of trails right in town, and quiet roads that climb into the Applegate Valley. These are the rides we do ourselves. Each guide has a route map you can open on Ride with GPS.
Pick a ride.
Jacksonville Forest ParkOver 30 miles of trail two miles from the shop. Our Wednesday night trails.
John's PeakThe mountain above the park. Motorcycle club land that's open to bikes, and big gravel climbs.
The Woodlands and Britt trailsShort, twisty multi-use trails you can ride to from downtown.
Road and gravel loopsSterling Creek, the Applegate Valley, and gravel climbs with big views.
A few things worth knowing.
Wet trails. The Woodlands ask cyclists to stay off the trails in wet weather, and Forest Park's trails get slick and muddy in the wet months. Give them a day or two to dry out.
Poison oak and ticks. Both are common here. Stay on the trail and check yourself after a ride.
Hunting season. Fall is hunting season on the BLM and timber land around town (not in Forest Park or the Woodlands). If you ride the back roads, wear something bright.
Get your bike ready. We're open Tuesday through Saturday for tune-ups, flat repair and anything else your bike needs. See our services →
