I used to ride that trail often on this cheaper bike shop bought hardtail and sometimes would start from my apartment off of Hwy 115 and the road the leads to the Broadmoor Hotel. Was it Circle Drive? Some of the best memories though. People that are active sometimes don't realize what's in their own backyard. Was lucky to have some good riding buddies that showed me the ropes of light downhill riding like this.

Hopefully when you make it back down I'll be able to join. It's definitely my favorite trail on there area. Still can't believe this great trail is so close to town. A fun alternate route down is take the right hand turn at the bottom of the Chutes, you'll go around a little reservoir back into the woods and end up at the Starsmore. Starting further up is a great time too.

Just rode this trail today. What he doesn't show is the 7 mile climb that is required. I have been riding now for a full year and this was by far the best ride I have been on.

Joe Breeze 2014: "One of my favorite trails is Captain Jacks above Colorado Springs off Cheyenne Canyon, a crazy ball-roll downhill single track. I first did it in 1985 with Otis Guy and friends from Marin when we were in town for World Championship road races. I last rode Jacks a couple of years ago with my son and cousin (who lives there). Still great fun." (www.singletracks.com/blog/mtb-trails/the-pros-weigh-in-whats-your-favorite-trail-part-1/)
