I rode out at this park today, it was fun! I'm used to riding at Lakeview where you are gated in on all 4 sides. I'm also used to Lakeview's terrain. Riding Tama Trails today was a placed. It is more trails than anything else, but there is a motocross area. You could get lost on all the different trails. The only thing that I disliked was that the boundaries of the actual park are not marked or fenced in anyway. There is a massive amount of private property in and around Tama Trails, but it seems most of the land is un-usable to the owners and many of them leave their gates open and allow riders to ride on their land. It was hard to tell, but we rode through an open gate that looked like it had been ridden on so much that it was ok to be there, and from what it looked like to me is you could probably ride next to the Iowa River all the way down to Chelsea. You could probably make an all-day event just riding one direction. Very fun trail, and it's cool that the private land around the park is also ok to ride on. (Or so it seems, lots of what looked to be private land had been well-traveled by ATV's so much that it was dirt only and no grass.)
