Blue Marsh Lake
I could rave all day about this fantastic loop around Blue Marsh Lake. It's easily one of the best rides around. The singletrack trails are tight and the terrain offers a number of short, steep hills and stream crossings. The trail is never very difficult, so you can really crank out the miles. If you're in the Reading area only for a short time, this is the ride I recommend. And IMBA agrees. they called this one of the best mountain bike trails in America. Ride it and find out why. Expert riders will spend most of the ride in their middle chain ring. Terrain: Singletrack, doubletrack, dirt and paved roads.
