Short answer. No.  You are in the land of No MTB'ng. i.e. Briargate

Try the Air Force Academy.  There are some trails you can ride there.

Or, You can hit the Santa Fe Trail though(North/South Trail through
AFA)
and take it to some other trails.

There's some good riding at the Forest Service Center up near Monument,
or else everything else is pretty much South of town at Cheyenne
Canyon.
