I'm thinking of doing a roadtrip after graduation (Virginia Tech). Can you guys suggest good spots to hit for trail riding, dh, MTX/DS/DJ, street? This will be a 2 week long trip. Also I guess I'll be looking for some locals to hang out with :)


for example:

Country Park, Winston-Salem, NC

please be specific on the location (approximate) and type of riding.

thank you

Down in the G-Spot
Coen Jumps have a few 11-12-foot doubles, a rolling tabletop, a few BIG BMX-style jumps

PeeWees has really sweet North Shore stuff and DJ's, CHHS, has well-built stunts, gaps, and LOTS of DJ's

Legends has a few drops and other stunts (i think)

Salem Lake is mostly North Shore stuff, but
it's all run-down except for a few jumps...

Everyone please add...

downtown charlotte and NCSU have some nice urban. I've ridden quite a few urban scenes and these two definitely stand out above the rest. You might just consider staying in the triad area a few nights, maybe somewhere in the middle so you can get to G-boro, CHHS and all the Raleigh area trails people are mentioning. If you're gonna ride charlotte or NCSU give me a message and I'll ride along or at least get you in touch with some other locals to show you around.

I was under the impression that hobby park was destroyed.... maybe I heard wrong. the triad is Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill. But Greensboro, Charlotte and Winston Salem aren't far away, so within a few hours there are quite a few nasty trails/urban scenes worth mentioning.
