Itinerary:
moderate -strenuous

Well be riding both Bull Mtn and Bare Hare Trails, approx 15miles. @2-3hrs

Well head up the trail in CW direction. After a long steady climb, well break at the truck stop to recharge our batteries. The trail will then become more balanced. At the Bare Hare Trail junction we will climb one more short steep section; and then the fun really begins. Tight twisty downhill, that leads to open,fast downhill ridden at your own pace. Another snack break at the stream crossing, then one more challenging climb and back towards the cars. Should be back to car pool lot @ 4pm.

This is not considered a beginners trail, however it will be a fun group ride-no one left behind- in a beautiful area. First 3 miles are uphill and rocky in many places. There is alot of fun downhill also, ,both single track and fast,old forest rd,and 1 easy stream crossing. Check out mtbReview.com for trail reviews
