Saturday may 30th, beginner ride

[Foster]

Hey guys, i dont have much time throughout the week to ride since i work kinda late. I wanted to get out to the Timberlake trails this weekend and it looks like the weather will hold up. I need to get a range pass as well so i will be there early to do any necessary stuff...I have never been out there but hopefully i can find my way. if anyone wants to join me feel free. I know its on a saturday morning but i wanted to experience the trails for myself...Let me know if ya wanna come out

Hey.
That's great that you want to get out there. Your post led me to think that you plan to get the range pass at Timberlake. You have to go to Jackson Guard in Niceville to get that. Sorry if I misunderstood. You will probably see some folks out there on Saturday. A lot of people road ride with the local club on Sat morning, so the Tues, Thurs crowd is not usually there.

Hey Foster,
The Timberlake trails are out of the west gate of Eglin AFB. I've included a hyperlink to a map to show you where to enter the trails.

I have been down ranger road plenty of times, but im not sure where the Timberlake trails are. I always see the road bikers part in the gravel right at the entrance, but i just dont want to get lost haha....can anyone help me out?

[sikken]

The trails begin right across from where the people park, you can see the entrance. The link below is a map of the diff trails at Timberlake.
