We rode CMRA one week day as part of our spring break dirtbike trip. It was not crowded and we loved the dirt bike only policy! It had three nice loops and a majority of single track with some larger "easy out" trails.

We blew 15 minutes finding the entrance that is not well posted. I suppose I understand limiting the signage to not draw lots of attention. Note to any first time riders of CMRA, the entrance is a little less than 4 miles from the Circle E Ranch, not 4 to 5 miles as posted on the website.

While CMRA advertises to have 17000 acres we are not sure where the boundaries were. We ran into "area closed" signs in many places. The management of CMRA really needs to provide a trail map for download or even something as simple as a sign people could photo with their phones. While they are at it, they could update the website to show the mileage to the entrance within a tenth of a mile and provide GPS coordinates.
