I guess the subject is pretty self-explanatory... I'm looking for a park/trail where I can ride my bike. Anyone has any ideas?

not sure if you are looking for road or offroad.

If you are looking for a paved trail Campion Trails in Las Colinas is good. Coppell also has a paved trail that runs east/west through the various Andy Brown parks and along a creek. There are also several good road loops in Las Colinas, Coppell and Carrolton. Much of which is fairly empty after business hours or on the weekend.

Offroad you have LB Houston / California Crossing near Las Colinas. It is fun singletrack that is beginner friendly. There are also a couple of good trails around Lake Grapevine. The northshore trail is an out and back trail (19 miles both way I believe) that has some more challenging areas. Horseshoe is the other and is easier and shorter.

For the love of God, please don't ride on the road! I can't stand people who do this. Get a life, you are not Lance Armstrong and he cheated anyway.

If you are looking for a park with paved trails, Andy Brown Park in Coppell.

I have frequently ridden m bicycle on the mean streets of Dallas, the law allowing me the privilege. Your comment compounding my satisfaction each time I read it.

Can you please explain how Lance Armstrong cheated and please, verify your source? Otherwise your comment could be construed as slander, not befitting a 'horned frog', I'm assuming from TCU, or a Christian.

I can't stand people who are ignorant of traffic laws that give cyclists the right to use the same road as drivers.

There are group rides that leave the swim complex on Sat. and Sun. mornings and head up to the Flower Mound area--not sure of the name of the group, though
