Downhiller Summary:
Time for an update-
Since the last review there have been alot of changes to the ETSU trail system area. We still have the 5.5 miles of xc but there have been a few re-routes, and a few in the making, that will make it flow better than before. The downhill course has had a make over as well. We have added a pump track, classic slalom, and dirt jumps in the same area as the regular Slalom course is at. You can't miss it. The old freeride trail is also in the course of being revamped. If you would like any information you can contact me at zgef1@goldmail.etsu.edu. Come out and ride whenever! or Give me a shout and we'll get out there and show you around. Cheers!

Racer Summary:
A great dual course with a large step up jump that is very fast and fun. A very good spectators course also. This place also has a single track downhill course that has a five foot drop, rock gardens,woops, little jumps and drops, and also a cool log section. We recently began a free ride course,close to the dual course, with the most killer drop in the whole area that is a 6 footer with a 3 foot gap off the top of a cave with a smooth landing that is beautiful. Cross country trails go around and over the road with a couple cool short downhills. Recommended Route:
Same as above, to get to the new free ride it is easy to go to the bottom of the dual course and go left along the rail road up the hill a little and you,ll see a killer drop on the left, (over a cave!) ,and a little one to the right Other recommended trails in the same area:
The chute or the widow maker on Buffalo Mt. off of dry creek road.

, from Johnson City Summary:
This is a great little trail if you are just wanting to go out and hit the woods and have some fun. If you ride this trail foward it is probaly at least 60% uphill so be prepared. Take this trail backward if you want a fast paced mostly downhill ride. Overall this is a good trail that could only be improved upon if it were longer. Recommended Route:
Forward or Backward Other recommended trails in the same area:

The ETSU Cycling Club has recently expanded the XC trail to 5.5 miles on pure on the wood singletrack. Tight, fast, and busy is the word so check it out next time you are in Johnson City.
Don't miss the killer DH course as well as the World Class Dual Slalom. NTMBA (The Northeast TN Mtn Bike Assoc) will be hosting the 2nd annual Greystoke Subaru Rollin at The Ridge XC, DS, and DH race July 13-14. Norba and TORBA points race. Check it out at www.NTMBA.org. Recommended Route:
Just follow Brian Archers posting below. This is the best route with a high fun factor. Other recommended trails in the same area:
Laurel Fork, Buffalo, WARRIORS PATH for sure!

, from Johnson City Summary:
This trail has evolved into a nice 4.5 mile singletrack course thanks to alot of help by the NTMBA and ETSU cycling clubs. A great venue for races with XC,DS,and DH on site. The singletrack is fast and tight and will make you hurt if you attack it. Technical enough to challenge beginners and demand respect from advanced riders (or it will bite you).
Bottom line: great singletrack and fun to ride. Recommended Route:
Start at the parking lot on right just past the railroad bridge. Ride towards WETS radio station and veer left onto trail just before entering WETS driveway. Follow trail in clockwise direction. Other recommended trails in the same area:
Buffalo Mtn, Warriors Path, Laurel Fork, Eagles nest.
