Cross Country Rider Summary:
I met Ashby Stokes and his brother for their Sunday afternoon ride May 25th. Mostly smooth singletrack fast and flowing with creek crossings, fast downhills and not too much climbing. It's not too technical but has sweet flow. The trail is very well maintained and offers a wide variety of landscapes and terrain - all fun. It was well worth the drive (I am from Jacksonville, FL) and is on my list to return to any time I am able. I recommend first time riders contact Ashby Stokes at the link on the trail description and meet him or one of the Greenwood mountain bikers the first time because the trail runs on gravel road at several places and would be difficult to follow without a guide. Don't miss this sweet trail if you are in the area! Recommended Route:
Rode it counterclockwise starting at the 505/506 trailhead but it could be ridden either direction. Other recommended trails in the same area:
FATS
Hickory Knob State Park

Cross Country Rider Summary:
This one will not challenge with technical requirements but will challenge your aero engine if ridden fast. Sweet flowing single track with a few short steep climbs and lots of gradual up/downhills. Very lucky to have this one in my back yard for training and hanging out with the guys. Recommended Route:
Ride it all! A few sections are out and back, but thgat does not diminishe the fun factor at all. The mileage total is roughly 26 miles when all is ridden. Other recommended trails in the same area:
Forks Area trail (FATS)
Hickory Knob
Modoc (Stevens Creek)
Wine & Turkey Creek
Dupont State Park (NC)

Cross Country Rider Summary:
This is the hidden gem of trails in South Carolina. A big group of riders of all skill levels rides this trail on Tuesdays and Thursdays (after work) and many times on the weekends. It is FAST, flowing and fun. It is one of the best maintained trails thanks to the local group of riders you will find at www.greenwoodmtb.com. Dont come to South Carolina to ride your mountain bike and miss this one. Recommended Route:
See the maps at www.greenwoodmtb.com Other recommended trails in the same area:

Cross Country Rider Summary:
Compared to other trails in SC this is one of the best I have ridden. It is mostly single track. It has a lot of terrain change and you can alter you ride length in many ways. There is a lot of info about this trail at www.greenwoodmtb.com. It is well maintained (USFS and Local Riders) Watch out for Hunters and Horses, they are out there as well. Technical stuff includes: Log Crossings, Creek Crossings, Rooty or Rocky Climbing, some tight turns. Watch out for loose gravel in some spots. Recommended Route:
The Kudzu Loop, Dead Dog Loop (see website) Other recommended trails in the same area:
Hickory Knob, FATS
