Yes, I like to do my 12 mile maintenance rides on a local walking trail that has a 3.5" mile section of asphalt, but for the most part it's crushed limestone which tends to get everywhere. When it was below freezing the limestone was more solid.

FWIW my goal is to venture on local singletrack in the spring. For part of my maintenance rides I take a slight detour into a wooded section of a local park and do a dirt doubletrack that is windy with a downhill grade and lots of roots and loose soil.
