Script: Looking for a good place to mountain bike in Columbus, Ohio? Chestnut Ridge Metropark has one of the top trails in the area. It is located southeast of the city, near Canal Winchester and features an 8.5 mile loop with 900 feet of climbing.
The trail was built from the ground up by the Central Ohio Mountain Bike Organization, known as Combo. They used sustainable IMBA standards that allow it to stand up to the weather better than other trails in the area. Park rangers close Chestnut when it’s damp, but there is a shorter 5-mile wet weather loop that dries out fairly quickly after a storm.
Over the first three miles, riders slowly climb on twisty singletrack through deciduous forest up to the most famous landmark, the Apple Barn, which is the high point of the trail. Then the path spends the next 5 miles slowly descending - which means you get some sweet downhills to fly through.
There is a nice mix of rocks, roots and flowy sections of trail and several places to catch air along the course. Man-made obstacles include berms, log-overs and bridges to help you cross ravines. Other features at the park include a downhill trail, pump track, skills area and a cyclocross course.
Make sure you join IMBA or your local trail group to help support more great trails like this in your area. Also, check out quickdirt.com for more great mountain bike articles.
Very nice video. The video quality is great and the content is quite informative.
Is the cyclecross trail still part if the trail system? I've never come across it
What brand is your bike? I've never seen a mountain bike without suspension?
Trek Superfly SS (SInglespeed). It's a very simple bike and that's the way I like it. Not a lot of parts to break and it's a lot lighter too. It wouldn't be a good enduro, downhill or all-mountain bike though.
Sure do miss your beer reviews!
+old12school3 sometimes I miss making them, but it was starting to affect my health. I still like drinking beers and trying new breweries, but I needed a more active hobby.
James retired, did he knott?
I'm still alive.
You are Knott!
