Rowlett Creek Preserve located in north Garland (LAT 32deg 56’ 46" LON 96deg 32’ 58" MAPSCO 19A-V). The parking lot is at Centerville Road and Castle, just south of where Centerville tees into 190.
This is an ever-growing loop that the trail steward, Earl Hammond, keeps adding to.
It seems every time I go out there, there’s more to ride!
Mostly flat and twisty, although we did manage to find some dips and whoop-de-doos in there.
You cross the creek early on, and come close to it on several other points, but be careful, or you’ll wind up in it! He has several logs to jump, how many depending on who’s moved what, and at one point you end up by the waste-treatment plant (no - you can’t hold your breath until you get away from it, but it’s not that bad...).
There is now about 12 miles of trail, with more planned in the future.
