I really liked that there were lots of one-way sections, as a beginner it was nice to know that no one was going to come around a corner right into my bike. There is also a ton of signage so I always knew where I was and how to get back to the main parking lot. I can't recommend checking this place out enough!!!!

The network of trails has something to offer everyone from beginner to advanced rider. The blue trails, in particular, are fun and flowy with just enough technical to give you a little challenge and help you advance. I haven't begun to take a deep dive into all the trails but right now my favorite ride at the moment is Marvin's Garden to KGB to the chicken to Kents (blue) to Kents (green).

This is hands down my favorite mountain bike trail in Bend. This is a downhill only trail that is…read morelocated beyond the Phils trail complex further up Skyliner road. You can reach it by taking trails up from Phil's trailhead, but it's quite an uphill climb. The skill level for the Whoops trail is intermediate to advanced. I wouldn't recommend it for a beginner unless you want to fall off your bike. This trail has a ton of jumps and tables. I rarely hit the jumps myself, but you can just ride over them and still have a blast. Many of these tables and jumps have some baking turns right after them, so be on your A game when riding over them. This trail is higher elevation than the other trails so it takes a bit longer to thaw out. Since it is one of the most popular trails it is typically one of the first to get rutted out. There are a few drops a rock to run over on the trail, so be aware of that as well. One of my favorite features of this trail is the options that you have when riding it. What is great is that you can park at the bottom and ride up the forest road up to it if you are short on time. If it takes you longer than you guessed you can leave, or if you have time you can go again. This make is perfect for local who want to get in an evening ride after work. Many of the other trials are much longer, making it difficult to get a ride in if you work late, but the whoops is fun and quick. If you have all day, I like to park at Phil's Trailhead, ride up Bens, to the top of Whoops, and down whoops and down Phill's canyon trail. This is one fo the best Mt bike trail combos in town!

So much so that a bicycle manufacturer knows about it. I broke my chain whip on a Monday evening and decided to try and new shop on a whim and ran over to pull a cassette off a wheel. These guys took care of it instantly. Three days later, I was having some bake issues and within an hour of drop off, one of their lead techs was already on the phone with Sram having a replacement overnighted. Definitely above and beyond! Pretty stoked on their work and attention to detail!

I've taken a private…read moreguided tour here before and had a great experience and probably should've written them up then however, recently I scheduled the second tour about a year later and accidentally showed up a week early. This was totally my mistake. I had set my mind up to not bike that day once I realized the error However Lara was so gracious and kind about my mistake. She immediately walked me over to the office and started trying to figure out what else we could do. She really want the extra mile and ended up coordinating bikes from the hotel, recommending a route since now we wouldn't have a guide, and offering to drive us up if we weren't able to catch the shuttle. There's no place I will rent a bike in Bend besides here thank you Cog Wild.

Great shuttle service. We used this business in May. So we weren't able to do some of the shuttles…read morewe booked in Oakridge, OR due to the snow keeping the shuttle from reaching the trailhead. CW gave us an extra shuttle the first day we had shuttles booked for no extra charge to make up for the inconvenience of the snow affecting our scheduled shuttles. Then they were willing to work with us the following day after we missed our scheduled time due to some confusion. 10/10 would use this service again. Shout out to our shuttle driver Rob. Great hospitality and very accommodating.

This was an ok trip but I had mixed feelings about it…read more Pros: The guide was nice (we had Lane), which made the ride more enjoyable. He knew all of our names before we even left the parking lot. The trail was in good shape from recent rain so a beginner would have no trouble participating. Cons: The email confirmation and website mentioned the bike shortage and that riders had to be a minimum of 4 ft tall with a 24 inch inseam but didn't really explain how to measure that, etc. Sure, I know what an inseam in pants is, but turns out an inseam measurement for bike riding is different. Would have been nice to know without having to look it up the night before and then worry my kid wouldn't be tall enough. Lots of standing around. We were on the 10-4 tour and though we arrived at 9:45 no one directed us to have our kids take the bike test to see if they could go and nobody got fitted for bikes until everyone in the booking had arrived. Then, the large 10 am group was split into two smaller groups and if you were in the second group, you had to stand around for 20 minutes killing time to give the first group a head start. Why not just stagger the starts and have a 10 am and a 10:30? From a customer perspective this sort of sucked. This was billed as a Mountain bike ride with waterfalls and slides, but it was more like, walking/hiking to see 3 waterfalls and then a very mellow 3 mile single track ride to finish. It would have been nice to sort people by skill or interest (shorter vs longer rides) as we definitely had some gung ho dudes in our group and some newbies like me. Two of the waterfalls (at least) were accessible via McKay campground, which was a little disappointing. I thought we would be off the beaten path, checking out a little known spot, etc. Overall, our young kids, 8 and 10 enjoyed it and had fun. It was their first time mountain biking. I'd rate the ride and scenery 4 stars but the administration and organization only 2 stars (I'm a fan of efficiency and customer service) , hence my 3 star rating.

From there the group will vote and you must conform to the group decision. We were the only ones who showed up. The owner, Todd, decided after getting various voice messages the day before and the morning of, but he would cancel the event. Great! No pick up the phone and call your customers to make sure they don't waste their time and come all the way out to the top of a mountain only to find your experience was canceled. He claimed to have sent a text in the early morning hours. But I didn't get it until after the fact. Oh well, not great but not terrible. Did waste a lot of our time driving out there on a horrific weather day for smoke. Talked to Todd personally later, and he said "no problem I'll give your money back." Refund it all of it except our deposit, then wouldn't answer the phone or return multiple calls. In my final message I reminded him of his neglect as a business owner and a conscientious honest human. Told him repeatedly he needed to refund my deposit, as there were no terms or discussion of anything other than a full refund. Really annoying to deal with business owners who aren't conscientious. Really detracts from your credibility. So here's the review I promise to leave you if you went another two weeks without returning my calls again. Gave you four chances Todd.

I love this little mountain bike trail. Though the trek to the top is a long and steady climb, it's…read moreworth it when you get to the top. From here you will have a downhill only section of trail to bomb down. This trial starts out off of Conklin Road and as far as I know there is no way to shuttle this. The uphill is pretty gnarly, but at least from my experience pretty steady. So you may want to bring a snack or two for energy. The trail follows a forest service road up to the top of a beautiful butte that is uphill only and separate from the downhill section of the trail. So you will not have to stop much for anyone passing you. When you get close to the top you will stat to notice the elevation increase and be able to witness some breathtaking views that are unique from this perspective of central Oregon. Once you get to the top, I would recommend taking a breather and getting some photos of the views. It's a good time to chill and have a snack. From here you will be ready to mob downhill. This is where things get super fun. There are a few rocky sections to watch out for, but for the most part this trial is pretty smooth and fast! As this trail is ways from any hospital you will want to use good judgment, but still, have fun. Be sure to stay on the designated uphill or downhill section that you are supposed to be on and you will have a five-star experience!
