    yeah I've watched more and more video and it just looks like a much much larger version of my local riding areas, but same kind of riding. I'm excited.

    yeah I have a just a small handful of trails with sections that have the same grades as Pisgah, but those are my favorites. I'm not saying it'll be something I'm used to lol, but that I'm looking forward to it being a step up from what I've done.

    Shooting for similar arrival time Friday. Would like to get a decent spin in that day as I’ll likely be jetting early Sunday too.

    Jeff's leaving first thing Sunday as well, Father's Day.

    I will almost certainly spend Thursday night in Asheville so I will be ready to ride first thing Friday for anyone that is coming in early.

    is that the Big Rock trail? I watched some videos and that looks like so much fun.

    as long as y'all don't have me on some crazy ass cliff edges I'll ride anything...I just can't control my vertigo in some situations..

    We can shoot to do Big Rock and Ridgeline on Friday afternoon. @stronghammer if you are going to be in Friday morning, we could do Kitsuma.

    Saturday morning we can probably get a ride on Bennett and Avery (if we shuttle), then do Middle/Lower Black + Sycamore in the afternoon.

    Was not planning on it but I can ask the host what it would cost to get there early. FYI, use The Hub as your marker when you put it into google maps.
