email from David @ GeologyPro@TeamWiggleWorm.com, a mountain bike club: "We have four good parks and of those, two really good ones. Markham Park was rated as the top park out of the four fastest parks in the US by Bicycling Magazine (June 2000). Go to http://teamwiggleworm.com/soflabike.htm for more details and Oleta State Recreation Area hosts a number of races, including the national Cactus Cup."
