MOUNTAIN BIKING: Highbridge Park Trails

← NJ PASSAIC RIVER POMPTON RIV AT TWO BRIDGES NJ Single Tracks →

Description

Highbridge confounds expectations. With everything from smooth cruisers to wickedly technical "east coast gnar." The trails provide a small entertaining subsample of the regions trails, all within the confines of the densest metropolitan area in North America- New York City! In addition to the XC trails, Highbridge also features a freeride trail, designed and built in conjunction with pro rider Jim Dellavalle and the Brooklyn Bike Riders and a dirt jump park, designed and built by IMBA Trailsolutions with current and former pro riders Judd Devall, Jeff Lenosky and Kyle Ebbett. While the XC trails are a bit short to ride as a destination, they're perfect for city residents and visitors looking for a local spin. Check out www.nycmtb.org.
