Itinerary description

Cycling - Part of the Cleveland Metroparks system, the Mill Stream Run Reservation hosts two mountain bike trails: the Yellow and the Red. Both one-way single-tracks thrrugh the woods and my GPS track combines both of them. The actual off-road section is just over 13 Km (8 mi).
Plenty of exposed roots but the run doesn't require particular riding skills. I haven't found much technical difference between the Yellow and the Red sections. As per my standards - I'm from the Italian Alps - there are no climbs here but rather a couple of very gentle short slopes in the Red section. Cumulative climb is 230 m (755 ft) of elevation change.
Fun and easy course, and totally dry. I actually took it with a hybrid bike and guess street tires wouldn't be any good in wet conditions.
