Well Today I had a Dentist Appointment from 4 -5 . so I figured Since I am going to be in that Direction , and I will hav eto drive any way , why not see if any one 1s interested in riding Satans Playground in westwood. well there was interest. so I emailed Jack , who is the person who made these trails . Now these trails are NEW real new. we started cutting it in January http://bustedspoke.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?t=32684 and I guess they did he 2nd half a couple of weeks ago. so its new.
Here is the topo of the location next time I will bring my GPS.

any way this trail is a lot of Fun , very difficult, Lots of Ups and Down. Bring your climbing legs you'll need them, but you all get rewarded too!
Well We parked on Twin post road . and there isa trail head there ( which is under dispute right now , don't use it yet. ) But I walked in a a few yards to relieve my Bladder , and you know your in a rich town when they really doo there Tree Houses tight !
well from there you cross hartford ave. go down about 20 yards and ther eis the trail head , you go up right away. and this is a good example of a lot of what you have to ride. it tough technical riding. you get up and there isa Fork , takea right , tish rides Best counter clock wise.
Mean WHile the Silver turtle discovered his rear Shock was blown and his SX was in the shop , so he borrowed a light weight enduro from BadDNA , and Up a rock he goes . .
Donny doing a rough Roll
Donny doing a Steep Roll !
there are not many Hucks or drop, but Lots of Roll's
BadDNA Rolling through
Silver Turtle in a groove.
BAdDNA and Silver turtle , go around the Beer Keg.
Off camber roll
JAck , fearless leader , and trail designer.
Silver turtle at the top of some Lung busting , time to do a little down
Jack , a Roll that is the start of a really fun Roller coaster down hill !
Donny Riding a Spine.
Me taking a different line.
JAck doing a little wheelie drop.
BadDNA doing one as well
Donny rolling down a rock, may look easy , but you can ask Berkshire rider you dam near killed him self on this thing.
Donny on a Wall ride
Jack with his Dog "copper" following
and it was getting dark , and only a couple of us had lights so Out we went .
Donny on one final roller
the exit it self is an fun down hill run out right into traffic! always Fun .
we did 1 1/2 laps . I'd say about 4 miles. but they were hard Miles , but o so fun miles too!
and one last pic for the road , BadDNA put his Mat on the back of his truck to protect it from scratches .
What a ride , This place is ubber fun, needs a little more work and to be ridden to pack down the trails.
