I don't mean to upset anybody or hurt any feelings with somethings in this post.
This is just an old school mtn bike trail.
If you have ever rode any trails off of Hwy 181, I mean real mtn bike trails not the machine cut trails. Then you will know what to expect when you visit Hick park. It's not a groomed trail that you really should just ride a cycle cross bike on. The trail will work you if you push hard. Take your time and enjoy the ride. There are roots, rocks, trees and anything that you will come across on a trail in the backwoods of the mountains. Jacobs fork park is nice but it's just like most of the trails already in our area. Flat and smooth.
Road bike worthy?
It's about 6 miles the lake loop may push it to 7 miles.
The lake loop is probably the toughest section.
If you feel like it at the end of the trail, turn around and ride the trail backwards.
We have a couple of guys turning about 40-45 minute laps.
If you catch one of the guys that ride Glen Hilton park, follow them and ride both trails.
Hick Park is my favorite trail. It reminds me of the backwoods trails in the mountains.
We tell everybody; "If you can ride here, then you can ride anywhere!!!!!!!!!!!"
