After 3/4 mile the trail loops back to the trailhead parking lot to conclude the ride.

History & Background

Thanks to efforts by Mike Cobbler from Cycletherapy, Clemmons Bicycle and other trail volunteers, this trail has come a long way in recent years. Mike and others have done a great job building berms, bridges, rock gardens and jumps.
