Tips

Bay Area Mountain Bike Rides

June 4, 2015

Soaring Eagle Trail ends by bringing you very conveniently to the top of the first flow trail on this ride, which is Sugar City Trail (also referred to as "Northern Harrier"). This is a narrow singletrack that descends a bare hillside by very economical use of elevation loss via very wide switchbacks, and sometimes even incurring a little elevation gain. It features numerous berms along its 1.5-mile length, some flat-topped and some rounded, some spread apart widely and some arriving in quick succession. One thing I noticed on Sugar City Trail is that its hairpin turns could use banks that are a bit higher, and I'm not even a fast rider. This is something that may have already been remedied by the time you read this. By the way, Sugar City Trail seems to have been named as a link to local history, given the fact that the town of Crockett owes its existence to a sugar refinery.
