I was like wait that’s not an ebike! 10% battery!? Lol. Nice video Corbin! Looks like a fun mellow place to relax and flow on the bike. Or progress as a beginner/intermediate rider. Great option.

The reason all the trails are so easy is because of the forest service. Since timberline is a national monument portlands forest service and other comities make sure the trails don’t make much erosion to “protect the salmon habitat” but really it’s just a bunch of old people who hate fun

Do you think it has anything to do with the elevation? I felt like like the bike park is located on pretty consistently low decline grade of elevation

@@MTB_Corbin it could be but there are some steep areas off of brobiwan that could have some gnarlier trails

I talked to a timberline employee about the ratings, they said they create the features based on what they got in nature and will continue to build out. The park itself is like 4 year old so it’s just a timing thing

Hi, I’ve never ridden Timberline Bike Park but did ride and race DH at Ski Bowl. Yesterday rode Raven’s Ridge DH in Timber, Oregon. I didn’t see any trail rating signs but it seemed far tougher and steeper than the Timberline trails. Are there similar rough and steep DH trails up there or anywhere you could suggest?

I guess a question for us local folks (who ride the region, but have never been to the Tline park) if we manage our expectations that the trail ratings are skewed/the trails are generally very tame, is it still fun/e.g., do you get a good cruisy day of lift assisted biking to perhaps work on some skills, rail a bunch of corners, or are the trails just sandy, flat and overall bad/not fun and that I'm better off going for a pedal somewhere else? Would love your take. Thanks!

Hey! I rode the park again about two weeks ago and filmed for a complete guide video but realized on the last trail that my aspect ratio was off haha. That was a big question I was posing in the video is who the park is best for. TBH, the best thing about the park is its accessibility to new riders. You get a lot and I mean a lot of time on the bike for each lap. However, if you are experienced then I would suggest going elsewhere. All of the trails feel incredibly similar outside of Ant Farm which is probably the best and it's the shortest. The sand is crazy high due to the dirt being basically volcanic ash from the eruption so long ago. The overall theme of each trail is just S turns without corners to rail. It takes forever to get down the mountain and I often found myself bored. That's a sad thing to admit because the park does have the elevation to spice it up, but the building is very much catered to beginners. The builders added some wood features to a few of the tracks, but not enough to keep my enthusiasm. Hope that helps... I'm going to try and get out there again this year but it's actually really hard to convince myself to go. It would be strictly for the audience so I could share the experience, rather than for my own enjoyment.
