Saturday, August 9th at Mountain Ridge Trails Resort near Reels Corner, PA
David Knight on his way to victory at Mountain Ridge last week. The full story.
Let's go check it out. I've been hearing and reading some good stuff about this place. All kinds of terrain, from novice to expert. A motocross track and 100 miles of trails, 2500 acres, $25 to ride all day. David Knight said it was his favorite course so far this year in the GNCC series. It's not too far: 60 miles from Gore, VA, 60 miles from Oakland, MD, 90 miles from Frederick, MD. It looks like a really fun place to spend a day!

I'll be there . I've heard good things also. All trails are color rated. Green= easy. Blue= challenging. Black= bruises,cuts, and broken bike parts.

To get a good look at the terrain at Mountain Ridge go to http://www.gnccracing.com/video/ and click on "Video Report #17". (I noticed a familiar bike in this vid, the KTM with the green #1. That's Justin Williamson, 2007 GNCC XC2 Champion and winner of the Timberline harescramble last month.)
There is also a quick glimpse of some of the rougher stuff at about 3:30 in this video:

Sorry, not sure. I'll be back to working weekends by August. I'd have to take about 15 hours of leave to do it. If you NEED a 6th person to get the discount I could probably be talked into it...
