Biking Miami's North Point Mountain Bike Trails on Virginia Key

Since 2011, Miami has had a wonderful venue for mountain biking out on Virginia Key.  The four miles of trails are rated as novice, intermediate, and advanced, with half rated as novice.  Here is a biker just after entering the area...




The scenery is marvelous, even occasionally displaying the water and some of Miami's sights, and all trails are well marked and in good condition.  Be aware that helmets are require of all riders, a precaution all should take even when not required, and all trails are one way for safety (and well used while I was there.)



For those who like moguls, there are a bunch, even some as high as five feet or so...





Here's a view of a downhill on an advanced trail, as seen from a novice trail that briefly runs alongside it...



Here are some more photos and info from the Virginia Key Bicycle Club Facebook page.
