Indianapolis rides river-bottom singletrack close to the city — Town Run along the White River, Fort Harrison to the northeast, and Southwestway on the other side of town. The tread is floodplain sand and loam, which drains quickly, but the low sections take water back whenever the river comes up, so a dry forecast and a dry trail are not the same thing here. Flat and fast rather than climb-heavy, and rideable most of the year.

Right now 27 of 27 featured Indianapolis trails are reading soft or too muddy to ride. Indianapolis is mostly loam soil, which drains at a moderate pace, so after a storm some trails firm up within a day while others stay greasy. Riding wet, soft dirt damages trails and leaves ruts, so check the live mud reading on each trail before you head out. Check the live mud reading →
