Heck yes. It's a great place to ride.
It is the best place I have ever ridden.
No..it's horrible..stay away, far away!!!
The place is epic....you won't be dissapointed. Most fun I've ever had on a bike.

Hey Burly...got any info on that cabin? Link, phone# or something? Been looking for something just like that so my wife and I can dissappear for a weekend.
dude that place is a hell of alot of fun. like everyone said you will not be dissapointed. i went once and i want to go back asap
I live down around Charlotte, NC. We're up in Pisgah almost every single weekend. The whole place is littered with trails. Lots of good DH up there. There's also a good amount of climbing involved too. Best thing to do is hook up with someone who knows the area.
One of the other guys arranged it all, but Ill ask him about it and post up. It was really cheap, i think $125 a night.Bushwhacker said:

There was also a foldout couch and an air mattress you smartasses.
shuttle Kitsuma?? That's stupid...very stupid. :nonono:dgrif said:
I didnt say it was the smartest move, i just said it was the easiest. i've never shuttled it, but whats so special about the ride up old 70? A couple halfway decent views, but nothing breath taking. Now after you get around the mtn where you can see 40 and hit that trail up there are some nice views. then its a sweet ride down
There is no reason to shuttle Kitazuma. I'm 200llbs. and out of shape and I can ride the whole loop on a 42 llb downhill bike with a single front chain ring. If you want to ride your big bike on high traffic multi-user trails, pedal or push up.
The ride down really doesnt warrant a full DH rig. Anyways.. my point was missed i think, not really trying to tell anyone how to ride the trail, just suggesting its a nice ride however you wanna ride it.
fixed that for ya, shirley.BurlyShirley said:
I can verify this : Big Jack is like the energizer bunny, he never stops pedaling - even if he can walk faster. I think that chainring is a 40T also! In Pisgah there are a lot of places you have to earn your turns per say. Either ride or hike-a-bike. Someplaces are just not a good idea to shuttle as future access could be comprimised.AngryMetalsmith said:
