This abandoned track is near my house and I ride by it on my street bike all the time. It's between Colorado Springs and Denver tucked up in the foothills North of Palmer Lake. The house and property and being lived in and look expensive, but they have let the track go back to nature. If they didn't want it, you'd think they'd just bulldoze it.
Anyone know the history on it?

Edit: after looking at the google maps I dont think that is the same track I am thinking of but its been 30 years. There was no house on the property at that time and there were a lot of trees so that looks like someone has just built some tracks on their land.
There's an active track right on the edge of Palmer Lake. I stopped by on street bike when someone was getting ready to ride and asked about it and they said the same thing: Private track that sold memberships and you got a key to get in. Do you know anything about this one?

I have a feeling it's not like that anywhere anymore.
