Well I decided on a such beautiful day as today I HAD to get out of St.Cloud and ride someplace new, that being the Milaca Trails.

So I arrived around 2P today and just picked out a random trail, I really didn't even notice the signs when I got there. I parked on the other side of the river nnear the park, rode across the bridge and just took a trail off to the right when I got there.

At first I was a bit turned off by how many ruts were in the singletrack, but after that first loop I took I found a better line and liked the whole trail for the most part! I didn't ride all of the loops, but I would say about 80% of it, that being I excluded the "Bog Monster". It was a fun trail overall, and I will definately go back, that being I bring a more CC oriented bike with. I took my Monocog singlespeed, which overall was a good bike, but there are some places you really need some some more gears to properly attack the terrain. :D

It was a fun trail overall, and I would recommend to any other mtn bikers especially this time of year.

Thanks for the update and it was nice to meet you Gary. The Bog is still in great shape too. Just a little wet going across by the bridge but that's about it. Just a reminder to keep your head up because there are a lot of people that like to walk to trails especially in the fall. I met quite a few yesterday.

Actually I only came across one couple walking, that was it. I just might go back out there next weekend and ride the Bog section. :)
