St. Joe-Well worth the two hour drive!!!



Martin and I road tripped down to St. Joe to preride the race course and what a treat it was. South Corby is technical and hilly while North Corby is a f1 course on dirt so bring your climbing legs and your sprint legs!!! We also ran into a local rider who showed us the new "Girl Scout" trail. Do not let the name fool ya, this is one of the best well planned out trails I've ever ridden on. Overall about 14 to 15 miles of trails all in one area, hats off to the St. Joe crew!!! I had to take a picture of the "stretching area", pretty cool idea.

They are having a ride tomorrow at 9am if anyone want's to go. Hopefully the rain will stay away. Post here if you need a ride or want to car pool.

Glad you liked it. We have worked REALLY HARD over the last 18 months. Everything you rode is new trail built in that time period. Also, nearly 100% of it was completely destroyed in the ice storms this last winter.

Also keep in mind, if you want a really epic weekend: Krug park is just a little further down the parkway from GSC, then just on the other side of Krug is Sunbridge hills. Depending on which loops you take, and how agressive you feel you can reel out between 25 and 30 miles of trails all within a mile or so of bike/walking path from eachother.

Ride Saturday at 9AM, although some folks might be showing up a little later.
