Alum Creek Phase 2 was opened to the public October 2005. It has numerous bridges, several bridge have turns in them. Hill climbs are longer and steeper than Phase 1; many log- overs require advance skill levels to navigate. Soil conditions are clay based so allow 2 days drying time after a significant rainfall. Night riding is permitted until 11:00pm. Seasonal closing from March 1 to May15th.

Summary:
This is Phase I's big brother and is a nice little trail close enough to get to after work if you live in C-bus. It has been around for a few years now and is breaking in nicely. A couple nice man made stunts to keep you occupied; a long curvy bridge about 6-7 feet off the ground, a nascar banked turn and for the ultimate badass the horshoe made of 2x6's. No big climbs so no big downhills either, but still a speedy track when dry. Oh, and just like on Phase I, watch out for the redneck fishers and idiots walking their dogs on the trail.

Recommended Route:
There's onle one...

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Phase I down the road

Summary:
This trail is great. Is more difficult and a better layout than phase one. This trail is good if you are within a 45 min drive. This trail doesn't have any long technical, long uphill or downhill sections. This is a fun ride if you live near Columbus and want a short drive and a fun trail.

Recommended Route:
Check out spokejunkies.com or omba for good directions and a good map.

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Phase one (when dry or frozen)

Summary:
Incredible trail, excelent maintenance and amazing layout. The trail flows very well and drains much better than Phase one. Beginners should probably hit up phase one before riding here.

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Check out phase one if it hasn't rained for a while.
