Weekend Warrior Summary: This trail is still open and maintained by locals. The signs will read closed but I still bike here. Don't recommend traveling to bike here, but if you live close and want a quick ride good place to go.

Weekend Warrior Summary: Well the signs still say that this trail is closed due to storm damage....but I went on it the other day. You will have to hike-a-bike over a couple of downed trees but other than that the trails are fine. Not to technical, but still fun. It is not worth a trip just for that, but if you live near the place, it is worth a stop.

Cross Country Rider Summary: Ok, so this isn't the most technical trail in the world. Don't expect tough log piles, greuling climbs, or rocky decents, there aren't any. However, what you can do here is shift onto your outer chainring and really open up on this trail.
The biggest problem with this trail is that it doesn't look like hardly anyone is riding it. Some spots tend to be a little overgrown while I've actually lost the trail in a few other places. But definitely check this trail out, a lot of hard work has gone into this trail to bring mountain biking to the east end. It's excellent for beginners and it's a great place for a good high-cadence workout. With a few more riders to break the trail in a little, this could be a pretty good spot. Other recommended trails in the same area: Pocahontas Park, Poor Farm, Powhite Park, Buttermilk, Forest Hill

, from Richmond/Fredericksburg, VA Summary: I have riden the trail quite a few times and have seen it grow.
The county has done a great job setting up and marking the trail. It's also maintained really well.
However, there is a lot of flats at first, (trail to the right) and if it rains, you may wanna avoid that part to avoid damaging the trail.
Yes the trail is sorta easy "overall", but it can also challange you to pickup and maintain a faster pace. Not to mention its a great ride for those that are just getting into mtbiking. Recommended Route: All, just follow all the arrows to get in your 5miles or so. Other recommended trails in the same area: PoorFarm, Buttermilk(Not for the faint, due to cliffs you ride on top of)

Reviewed by: onecog
, from richmond, va. Summary: I decided to try this trail on our record-setting 100 degree July 4th. Nobody else was there, and there were signs saying the trails were under construction and illegal to ride. Overall, the trails were short and overgrown. I had a fun time, but got bored after one hour. The terrain is flat, except for a series of about 4 switchbacks that are tight and barely a climb. There were a couple of log crossings that were smoothed over with dirt, and wooden bridges covered with chicken wire. A good effort;it is well marked according to difficulty level (it all seemed easy to me), but needs more. I'll ride it again, but I was disappointed at its size.
Recommended Route: Take 64 east from Richmond. Then follow directions on page. Other recommended trails in the same area: Poor Farm Park, Pocohontas
