Lived in Citrus Heights/Sacto area my whole life and I have yet to ride on the American River Bike Trail. A while back, all I heard about was muggers and ******* hanging out there. Probably just the usual media exaggeration.
BTW, I noticed my ride was much warmer this week, which I think is due to the time change. I am riding an hour later than before, even though it's at the same time.
Hugely overblown. The biggest potential hazards on the ARBT are four-legged. Particularly the kamikaze squirrels.
