    Considering a move to Harrisonburg VA. Info?

    Charlottesville and Waynesboro are also in consideration. Maybe even more so than H'burg. What I'm after is someplace I can build/ride decent FR/DH stuff during the week, close enough to hit up after work.

However when it comes to swain they actually have alot of open woods/logging trails not on the slopes that could be very easily accessed with small to mid sized equipment.(Bobcats, excavator/loader combo tractor,ect.) Having done heavy equipment repair...
