Directions - 84 west, exit 17, left at light onto 63 south, follow for about 2 miles and park in one of the pull-offs on the left or right..  Or you can just park at hop brook lake recreation area..

Description - There are basically 3 separate riding areas here that are all completely different.  The trails around hop brook lake were mainly double track, some rocky some gravel, some grassy..  The yellow trail off the bridle trail was soft single track that zig zagged over every rock, many logs and some hairpins..  Cool stuff, moderate at best techs, but soggy new ground (under construction I assume)..  Trail builders are doing allot of work to make it ride able though - lots of rocks placed and stuff..  Last but not least was the trails near hop brook on the west side of 63..  Some really good single track, fun rocks, some gardens, small drops, decent climbs..
