Since I've decided I'll be at Appalachian State next year I figure I'm gonna need to get aquainted with that area of Pisgah so I have something to ride next year. I'll explore it when I'm up there for sure, but I wouldn't mind doing a few rides before then so I know the area a little better. Anybody on here know the area well enough to show me around one weekend? I'll bring the cam and take some shots.

I went to school there like, 50 million years ago. The only shop in town had a new Rockhopper. That was it for mountain bikes back then.

Dudes, you're stoked -- I'm remembering that there's an endless amount of sicktor **** to ride on and near campus

I've been invited to urban sessions at App numerous times and never made it up there. I've heard it's an awesome mtb place convenient to mucho riding spots...

somewhere really ****ty
Ive ridden there once before with ed. I really couldnt tell you at all how to get around. Beeshive or whatever its called is a really fun trail though. Along with the trail thats right by it that comes off onto the same road as beeshive.

Over your shoulder whispering
Wiggins has hit up Wilson's Creek once I've been dying to try it myself. I'm up for it if someone will let me know a week or so in advance. I'm staying in Marion for the next 4-6 weeks so I'm not too far from that area. Heck, I'd like to hit it the weekend of the
21st!

I remember when I blew up a rear wheel one year up at App State. It was a night before a race at Sugar and we were doing some urban riding. Still raced on the bad wheel. Damn, Sun Single Track Rims.
