Well, yes, that’s one kind of off-road biking (pictured below).
But the kind I had in mind was actually on Hennepin Ave. in Uptown.
Biking from The Wedge to Lake of the Isles yesterday with my two sons, traffic on Hennepin Ave. was just a little too congested to compete with on our (non-mechanized) bikes.
So, we switched to the original off-road trail: the sidewalk.
P.S.: Later on, we really did do some off-road biking around the northeast corner of Cedar Lake, where the only way to circumnavigate that stretch of the lake is on a (gentle) dirt trail through the woods.
