I have not ridden the clinton river trail or Clinton Lake yet. I hear Clinton is quite technical as is Perry. I just started riding last Fall so my skills are sub par yet. I do alright but I tend to ride better by myself than with others. Also I'm not quite sure I like riding clipped in on the trails. It just feels like it makes me fall more in some situations. I run flats on my SS 29'er Haro. That bike is kind of my LRT go to bike! My other ride is a Sette Reken 26 Hardtail that I run CrankBro's Candy's on.
Dont feel too bad, im having to work my way back into shape after a broken collarbone. I only ride platforms but ill make the switch eventually. I havent made it to perry lake yet but its on my to do list. By buddy just bought a SS specialized rigid frame and its a lot funner to ride than i anticipated.
Manhattan KS here, the river trail out here isn't too bad we also have some amazing dirt jumps called holiday trails! I mainly bmx but just bought my self a bottle rocket looking to get into free riding, slope style, and downhill!
I know this is an older thread but I'm wondering what the exact location of the dirt jump place in Lawrence is. I've never done dj but I enjoy watching it.

Loling at myself. I only ride clipped in now and I love Clinton lake and the tech section.

Are the Clinton trails back in action? Last I knew (In May) they were all torn up from that mud run event. I'm in Manhattan, but work in/have family in Topeka. Wouldn't mind hitting some of the trails that way. Just had heard Clinton was totaled last time I checked.
Im originally from Lenexa. Im currently down in Oklahoma City. Any of you guys want to come down and try out some OK red dirt? It makes a spectacular trail surprisingly.
Lot of lakes around here have awesome trail networks.
I rode the LandRun 100 down in Stillwater last year. I grew up an hour away from Enid. Right north of the line. So i've seen some red dirt in my day lol.
