A new mountain bike trail opened today in East Dallas. Five miles of dirt track twist and turn through 50 wooded acres of the aptly named Creekside Park, which nestles up to White Rock Creek, about a mile south of the lake’s spillway. Credit goes to no fewer than three organizations: the Loop Dallas, which is building a 50-mile circuit around the city and operates a concrete trail that runs beside the park; the Dallas Park and Recreation Department, which should be obvious; and the Dallas Off-Road Bicycle Association, aka DORBA, the 35-year-old nonprofit whose volunteer army has built and maintains more than 30 trails and parks across North Texas.
