We should inundate them with riders - let 'em know what their "rather exorbitant fees" are costing 'em. Just a thought ...
I would like to ride there again and see what is currently available. I don't think I ever got quite all of it years ago and likely there's more now.
Jim,
That would actually be a really good thing if it happens.
I always told upper department management that we have a gem of a trail system if only we could do some periodic repairs and upkeep. Also, if we could lower the fee to a more competitive level (i.e. Springs, WWC, etc), we would see more bike traffic.
Anyone who has been around Charlotte mtn. biking for a while remembers when Cane Creek was a go to spot. Mostly because there just wasnt anything else besides Catawba, Poplar Tent, and UNCC.
I would love to see the trails slammed with bikes again. Its got everything you could want in a great trail. Fast, flow, tough climbs, natural rock gardens and creek crossings, etc. I usually do a 12-20 miler when I ride there after work and only double up a couple miles of trail.
Come on out and see what we have to offer.
Make sure to let Staff and Department managers know what you want in a trail system!
