If you're just looking for a flat, easy pedal, there's the Ray Roberts Greenbelt trail. It's double track, packed gravel, about 10 miles in total. Head north to US-380, then west to within a couple miles of Denton. You'll pass Rock Hill Road on your right, then cross the bridge. A short distance after, you'll see a sign for the greenbelt corridor park, and turn right into the parking lot for the trailhead. $5 fee. You can make a 10-mile ride of it by heading north to the SH-428 trailhead and coming back, or 20 miles to SH-455 trailhead at Lake Ray Roberts and back.
For single track mountain bike trails, there's the Northshore trail at Lake Grapevine and Erwin Park in McKinney, which are both good, challenging trails. Check www.dorba.org for directions and trail conditions.

Thanks. I can go either road or mtb, so it does not matter as long as I can get to it fairly quickly. I am actually going to be close to Arbor Hills, Plano, but it is short and anyhow seems to be still under construction according to www.dorba.org. It does not seem like there is anything similar to White Rock Lake loop or the White Rock Creek trail up on Lewisville, though I have not had time to really scout it out yet.
