Life non scripted my friend. Thanks for coming along and heading the call of the mountains....beware though, it's very addicting!!!

Hola Claudia!

Loads of fun.....we have the bruises to prove it :)

Thanks! That was one of my all time favorite Pecan rides.....dry ones aren't nearly as much fun :)

@@gabrielpulido8992 So many of the Singletrack Samurai rides end up muddy and swampy. Come join us sometime!

@@printerror Yep...I'll have to join you guys some time

@@gabrielpulido8992 Can't wait! There's a four part gravel series this season that I'm all-in for!

The main grades are smooth rolling, but the real fun starts when you start exploring those smaller side trails which are a more backcountry in style where you’ll be riding on much rougher / less groomed surfaces running the gamut from grass, to mud, to overgrown single track. There are some long old railway trams which are really fun to explore, plus there is a trail that goes to an old pier/bridge dating back to old logging days….lots of history there. Is it all doable with a gravel bike…yes, but it’s not optimal.

Thanks! We're going to check it out.

Thanks…your correct, Cove Creek is not in Pisgah, but the video was part of a week long trip at Brevard where we hiked, biked, kayaked and canyoneered in and around Pisgah. They all share the same opening.

Definitely bucket list worthy!!!

Agreed. It was a nice tranquil spot to hang out mid ride/hike and watch the wildlife. That said, there are many other surprises to be found if you explore off-trail.

Thanks! It's a big ride and very bucket list worthy, especially in the fall. You'll be talking about it forever after riding it!

Thanks Lisa....that was really a fun day!!!!

Hahaha, but Meg's Hole is one of the best parts! Actually Starkey has some great smooth easy rolling hard packed gravel under the power lines leading into the Serenova Tract. If you are adventurous, Starkey offers great "backcountry" style riding, where you'll ride everything from single tract, to dirt, to grass, to gravel and yes, even Florida's famous sand, plus you get a few river crossings. I've been able to squeeze in 50+ miles there exploring all the marked and unmarked trails. That said, big chunky tires are a must, especially if you hit a sandy stretch.

Water crossings? Nope! Irrational fear of alligators and trauma of many many many cottonmouth sightings/encounters at Flatwoods! LOL!@@gabrielpulido8992

It's a really fun system. I'm surprised they can get so much in to such a small space.

@@gabrielpulido8992 Most of our trails here are on Water Management land, and they won't allow any features on their land. We can't even bring in clay to protect the roots. :(

We have some areas that have the same limitations, luckily we have Alafia and Boyette close by...easily the most feature rich trails in FL.

hahah yep...I'm upholding the mountain bikers motto!

The network of gravel roads in the Cohutta Mountains seems endless. If you start in Nimblewill, GA, you'll have loads of amazing single track at Jake and Bull Mountain, that ranges from fast and flowy to rugged backcountry gnar.

Thanks. So many great roads and trails to explore in that area.

Nope. I rode the entire epic 50 route on the gravel bike. Just a few areas where you had to pick your lines carefully, but overall, lots of fun.

Trailforks has it listed as a 15.2 mile out and back + approximately 2 miles of buffalo creek to access Weed Patch Trail, but everyone states it's more like 20 miles. I started from the bottom at Buffalo Creek and rode up to the grey rock overlook for an out-and-back of approximately 12 miles and 2,600' of elevation. Total moving time was about 2:45 hrs

@@gabrielpulido8992 Hey Thanks A Bunch for the info , that sounds perfect , a 3 hour ride is what I typically try to do when I go to Pisgah or DuPont

@@wdwindham It's a great ride....you are going to love it!

Hahaha, thanks Paul!

It just would have been water and gravity without you two!!!

Enjoy, it's a great trail....headed back up there next week too

It's located in Clarks Hill SC....right across the river from Augusta, GA

@@gabrielpulido8992 is this your home trailhead? I travel a lot throughout south in Feb and march and always open to connecting with locals for a ride.

@@brianborgmann4011 no...it was just a weekend getaway. We tend to do them often.

So much fun!

Hahaha, we are just warming up for more adventures!

I guess that all depends on your skill level and gravel bike setup. Most of it is flowy, but some sections can get rough for a rigid bike w/ skinny tires.

@@gabrielpulido8992 I heard "yes". lol. Thanks man.

@@Bscott-390 Send it!!!!

We were already 7+ miles in when you guys hit the water

Indeed it is...in fact it's so beautiful that I found myself stopping far too frequently to take picture

You're welcome.....enjoy the yard!

South end is hidden gem.

Thanks Robert!

Yep, over 18,000 acres big!

Yes, it is indeed a fantastic backyard 😜

I actually use two all the time. I have a Garmin 520+ on my stem and a Garmin Fenix 6 Pro Solar on my wrist....and just for triple redundancy, the iPhone is in my pocket running a whole range of navigation apps.

It definitely wasn't us, but hello anyways!
