westseattledood, I’ve stopped using the greenbelt trails due to regularly encountering dogs off leash there, some of which have been aggressive. It’s too bad because I enjoy trail running.
That said, I probably wouldn’t go on the trails during a bike race; some of those trails are pretty narrow and the sight distance isn’t that great. It looks like a really great setup for trail riding, though, and I’m glad they’re doing it there; there used to be a lot of mountain biking in the West Duwamish Greenbelt, but some of those areas are in pretty bad shape and the bikes make it worse. Better to have them in an area that’s maintained regularly.
