Featured Ride: Chicopee Woods, Georgia

A fast, intermediate ride through beautiful hardwood forests, Chicopee Woods links together almost all of the trails and loops in this system adjacent the city of Gainesville (northeast of Atlanta) for an 18-mile zig-zagging, roller-coaster ride.

Expect flow, berms, bridges, a few climbs up a gravel road and a somewhat technical descent down White Tail Trail. The Tortoise Loop serves as a good warmup or a nice beginner trail. The trails are well-maintained and well-signed thanks to Gainesville SORBA.
