MOUNTAIN BIKING

Where: Solavaca Ranch, Glen Rose, TX
When: Friday--Sunday, October 25--27
While we might lack mountains, Texas is home to some of the best off road trails in the country. And thanks to the mild weather, we can mountain bike all fall. Meet other fat tire enthusiasts and immerse yourself in a weekend of muddy, two-wheeled fun at DORBA's annual Fall Campout and Trail Ride. Located on the picturesque Salavaca Ranch (between a 60 and 90 minute drive from DFW), terrain includes rollers, single track and creek crossings, while cozy camping sites and a pumpkin carving contest ensure you'll have fun long after you've dismounted your bike.
