Checking Out the New MTB Trail in Blacksburg - Grinder
Today I went up to check out the new trail added at the top of Brush Mountain. This trail connects the bottom of Chasers up to Running Cedar so you can skip the long climb of the old road. Its about .5mi and is not a bad climb as it offers a ton of switch backs. It was less fun going down. Certainly not as good as going down Chasers. You can get to it from Pandapas by going up to the Fireroad. I went up Horse Nettle to Running Cedar which is about 1.5mile from the upper lot to get to Running Cedar. Then its a short maybe .1mile from there to get to Grinder.

This is the unofficial Power Line trail coming down from the fire road just past Horse Nettle and leading to the Upper Parking lot at Pandapas. The power line part is rough, but the lower section in the woods is pretty fun.

In this video we are riding Chimney and Mineral Way in the Stone Cutters Hollow section of trails in Blacksburg, VA. Access to these trails is a bit tricky as you have to come down from the fire road coming from either McDonalds Hollow, Gateway, or Pandapas Pond trails. You can ride to the Stone Cutters Hollow trail entrance from the road if you part at McDonald Hollow. The entrance is located ...

Indian Pipe MTB Trail | Poverty Creek Trail System | Blacksburg, VA

This short trail is accessible near the end of Poverty Creek. You can part near the exit of the trail but it is a descent climb to get to the top. Its a fun trail but it is tough to justify the effort it takes to get there.

This is the Chasers Trail from the top side of the ridge from the Fire Road down away from Pandapas Pond. Its a really fun flowy trail with a steep climb to get back up to the fire road/horse nettle at the end. They are working on a new climbing trail but it isn't open yet.

New Trail Day! | Blacksburg VA New Trails First Run | Wavelength | Mineral Way | Chimney
zhlédnutí 646Před rokem
Some of the new trails opened last weekend, but the weather has been very wet. Today I got out to check out the new trails! I made the mistake of going up Gateway, and over on Chimney(which was unmarked). I don't think there is a parking lot at the bottom of the new trails but there has to be a better way. Next Time out I will see. In this video we ride down the bottom half of Mineral Way, All ...

    @mrsimo7144 Před 9 lety

    Awesome riding. Has the clutch got a lot to do with backing in and are you leaning into the bend? I have a ktm 530 now. Thanks again

    • @SolidWorksSurfacer
      @SolidWorksSurfacer Před 9 lety

      Thanks. A lot goes into sliding a bike. It automatically comes with speed. If you have to try you are forcing it. On the track you go past your braking point where you would typically turn in. When you are hard on the brakes while turning in the back end gets light and drifts out. The down shifting is to match the rear wheel speed to your exit speed. Slow turn down to first gear. Faster only go to 2nd etc. Clutch work and or slipper clutch is used to keep the back wheel from going too slow. Rear brake is used a little to control chatter not to slide. There is a lot going on! Go to a track and it will come :)
