Forest Creek, Dale TX


Recommended Posts

I saw some chatter on FB about Forest Creek, so we decided to check it out Saturday. We had a really good time. It seemed very similar to Warda—a high-speed, flowy track. We did 8 miles in about an hour, and if we had more time, I would have gladly gone out for another lap—nice piece of property for sure. I had never been to Dale, TX, but we were under an hour away. I definitely will be going back. It's a great addition to the region alongside RHR and Warda.

Interesting.  Is there on-site camping?  It appears there are miles of gravel riding from that location. 

Just found this online: Mellow Johnny's is sponsoring a TMBRA race there in Sept. https://www.bikereg.com/tmbra-the-forrest-creek-ranch-race

Here's the URL.  They have hunting, so assuming the venue will be closed at times.  Also, there's a lodge for any kind of event.  https://www.forrestcreek.net/

Not sure on camping. I know it only had select dates that it is open for riding and the TMBRA races like you noted.

I checked it out yesterday. Pretty great for what it is ~ 9 mile xc race loop with basically zero rocks. You can get super fast on some of the straightaways. lots of nice turns. And plenty of challenging berms. On the back side there is a section built by KOM with some pretty cool features, but i found it hard to carry speed through. i would need to session it before i really trusted those berms. 

This seems to be Todd Eric's baby for now. He said its his buddy's property. It is not generally open. He's been opening it up Saturday morning's when Todd can make it out there to supervise. They need to get more tires on the dirt to help bed in the trails. There is a group on the facebook that seems to have the most up-to-date info.
