Mom took the boys after church, so we loaded up the bikes on the top of the car and drove out to Draper. We did a leisurely ride around the green trail, then Jenn kicked me off and made me to the yellow trail. I knocked that out and we meet back at the car. I ended up with just over 7 miles in just less than 70 minutes.

kicked you off?
Yep. She kicked me off green to yellow.
She stayed on the green trail and you went to the yellow trail?
Yep. Yellow is harder. She doesn't really like it; it has some rocks, a wooden bridge, a bunch of narrow sections, etc. It isn't advanced, by any stretch, but it requires more concerted effort to not have issues.
So how good do you have to be to do green? I.e. Do you think I could do it? And is it well marked?
It isn't hard, per se, but there are some narrow spots (chances to run into trees). There are some difficult places where you have to go over tree roots going uphill, and there are some concrete block patches that are a little dicey.
It isn't a nice groomed trail, it is a trail cut through trees with lots of switch backs.
I should borrow Kyle's go pro and film it for you.
Thanks, I'm not ready for that yet...still too unsure of myself. We have only been riding on paved roads so far and I'm still a little wobbly. We are going to try and ride more daily-ish than just camping weekends-ish...so I should get better quicker than I have been.
