Corey, sorry to hear that they have pulled Tom Steed from the Tour de Dirt. 
Several of us from this area would like to thank you for all of the effort you
put into the trail.  We still come over to ride it a couple of times a year. 
Still a blast.  Anyway, Old Man Trail is located on city of Lawton property that
borders the west side of lake Lawtonka.  The trailhead starts in the refuge and
you have to climb, for now, a ladder to gain access.  From Medicine Park heading
west into the refuge the 1st dirt road on the north side of the road leads to a
small dirt parking lot.  From there a couple hundred yards to the north is the
fence with the ladder.  The loop is 6 1/2 miles or so, it goes out on single
track and then loops back onto itself for the finish.  If you've ridden Draper
then this is about as close as we've got around here.  A few more technical
spots thrown in for fun.  Nothing tough like what you've got over there.  Glad
to hear
that you haven't sold your mountain bike.  Happy trails and if there is
anything more I can do my cell # is 580-585-3336
