After years of street riding, I decided recently that I wanted to get back on the dirt. Mainly because Hidden Falls has been high on my list of activities for a long while. Picked up an old 1982 Honda XR205R and currently restoring it. Hoping to have it running well in the next month or so.
Once I get this XR running, I'd like to take it out on a few mild trails to test it out, make sure it's functionally good, and generally start getting my dirt legs back before getting too crazy.
Can anyone recommend some open trails in and around Austin that are OK for riding? By "OK", I mean won't bother anyone, won't get into any trouble, and are technically mild. The XR isn't street legal (and I don't plan on getting it legal), so it would need to be an area that I can trailer the bike to and from.
Del Valle Motocross and Hidden Falls are certainly options. Was just hoping to find some place simple, free, and close by where I can quickly load up the bike, run it for a bit to find issues, get a little practice, and head back home to continue wrenching.
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. And, if privacy is an issue, feel free to PM me.
Thanks.
