I love this trail. It is very close to my home and the forest is beautiful even though there isn't a waterfall or view just beautiful forest and currently small wildflowers. I hiked this later in the day for the 5th time hoping that some of the bikers had gone home. Today was the second time I was almost creamed by 3 men mountain biking downhill and coming around a blind curve. The first biker stopped just short of me and the second biker slide to a stop almost hitting the first biker. They never apologized and didn't say a word but did stop long enough for my two leached dogs and myself to walk around them. It isn't fun to be on a beautiful trail and almost get hit by bikers going at least 17+ miles an hour. (My guess, I use to road race on my road bike.) It is disappointing that these bikers are taking over this new nice trail. I hope someone including myself doesn't get hurt hiking on this trail with a few inconsiderate mountain bikers. Many bikers were polite but it only takes one crazy to ruin your day.
