I knew I should have went before now. always meant to check that place out but never did. I live over in Weatherford. I heard that when the lake was low, there was a great sandy beach area to ride on.

I went to Muenster a couple weekends back to Red River. It was my first time to go there and its a cool place. lots of sand. I think the guy said it's 2500 acres. It cost 8 bux to ride there and a long trip from me.

Glad to see another "some-what" local boy on here!

Muenster is about 15 miles west of Gainesville. Red River cycle park is about 10 miles or so northwest of Muenster.

I have a good friend who has a place on the lake. We are out there some in the summer skiing and swimming and have been for several years. It has it's ups and downs. It's not that big of a lake, but it's not that bad. I enjoy it out there. It's convenience to the metroplex is what it has going for it. Personally, If I was looking to buy a place for recreation I'd rather have a place at Possum Kindgom or maybe Granbury.

Red river cycle park sound like a lot of fun. When I get my 200x goin, maybe we can hook up down there. I'm in OKC, only a couple hours drive away.

What is a good area to ride around here? I have a quad and am looking for a trike. ;) I was hoping to find somewhere that wasn't too crowded or extreme.. I am just into trail riding!
