It's far from perfect but the Optimus G is definitely LG's best smartphone ever-www.ahappydeal.com reviews

I ride these trails at least tiwce a week. There are two well marked 6 mi loops that together combine make great 12 mi loop with a lot of challenges. Also is another 6 mi loop across the road each trail are very well maintained. In addition exist a play ground area for those that like more "extreme" ride. All trails have a bit of sand but they are fun ride.

I live in Pensacola. Ride the trails at least tiwce a week. There is a well marked 9mi loop and another 3mi loop across Pate Road(where the trailhead starts). A good bit of sand but a fun ride all in all.

TRAIL IS GREAT ITS NOT 4 MILES LONG THOUGH IF YOU GO TO THE WATER TOWER PARKING LOT AT THE END YOU WILL SEE A SMALL SINGLETRACK DOWNHILL NEXT TO THE STAIRS THEN LOOK STRAIGHT YOU WILL SEE THE TRAILHEAD MORE LIKE 15-20 MILES

Ride here most weekends I'm in town and I have yet to find a better single track within 100 miles. You can ride ALL day out there. Need to ride here if you're in the area

More like 20 miles all together. Something for everyone. PORC takes very good care of the trails which means the main ones are fairly tame (devoid of wheel ruining suprises) for those of us with day jobs but their are still sections that few have ever succeeded in getting through and hills I find impossible to climb.

UPDATE! Park at the water tower and head west, to your right if you are looking at the water tower, you'll see the trail just down past the Baptist student center. Get a map from the PORC website (www.porc.org) and you will find 10-15 miles worth of trails. Most are rolling singletrack with a few short, good climbs and descents. The 4 miles of trail mentioned previously is the trials section over by the soccer fields.

The trails at UWF are great for the new mountain biker as well as the adavance one.It is great to use it to get into shape for the more advanced trails elsewhere. The P.O.R.C. does a good job of keeping the trails clean and in good shape.
