Lucky Number 13 - Pennsylvania

Just last week I was fortunate enough to mountain bike in my 13th State! Lucky number 13 was Pennsylvania. With the advice of some locals, I was pointed in the direction to ride Moraine State Park in Portersville, PA.
The best information (and Trail Video) available on this awesome ride is located at This is the Pittsburgh Off-road Cyclists Club.

The trail system was extremely technical, and had way more rocks than I am used to seeing!!



The trail crossed the "NORTH COUNTRY TRAIL" a number of times, and it was a perfect day for a ride!





Sorry for the "darker" pics... It was very shaded on the trail from the great canopy of trees.

Here are some additional general single track photo's from Moraine, and in the third photo below - you did have to ride up the huge rock!







The group that works on this trail obviously does a fantastic job! The bridges, skinnies, etc were in great shape:

Its a TENnessee

April, and snow in Tennessee... Crazy.
Thats what I get for going there on spring break!
Spent one full day riding the trails.
The rugrat walked me off to hit the trailhead early one morning-


There was a nice amount of snowfall overnight, so when i started riding - the trails were pretty white.




Excellent single track with a ton of rocks and logs on the trail, which gets mighty slick when wet!





Man, I got really squirrely sliding around on this:


Awesome riding in Tennessee, with legs-O-burning from all the hill climbing!
Not really much to say, but some awesome closing pictures from the trip.
