MOUNTAIN BIKING: Stinchcomb East

← OK CIMARRON RIVER RIPLEY OK Single Tracks →

Description

After riding through the gate, follow the dirt road until you see the old guardrail on your left, take the small trail on your left and down just past it. Veer left immediately and follow the "stem" of the lollipop. There're some ups and downs in this section aimed at suprising you and trying to get you to step out of the pedals. Where the trail splits, follow it left for a nice downhill into the loop (taking it clockwise). Most of the loop is flat bottom with a few tight turns and a couple of little jumps and narrow beam bridges, which make is a nice beginner trail. Be careful of the many little sticks known to reach out and break a deraillure from time to time.

Directions

From I-40, take Council Road exit North to 50th Street. Turn West and follow to the dead end. The Stinchcomb Wildlife Refuge parking area is just to your NW. Park there, and ride North through the pipe gate.
