| Saturday morning 6 of us left Hilltop (near Ashland Resort) and made a speed run via trails to Welch where we picked up 9 more riders. We rode from Welch to Gilbert up Trail 12, several HMRH trails over to the connector. Rode up to Devil Anse cemetery and back to the connector. Then rode the connector to Matewan and stayed at the BB Sat night. It was a 152 mile trip with about 15-18 miles being various sections of pavement. The connector is a very nice trail but tight in places with a lot of blind corners. There are place where it was difficult when passing other SxS's. Sunday morning we headed back to Hilltop via some non HM trails south of Matewan. Some nice wooded trails, some pavement, some gravel roads. We went through Bens Creek and eventually connect to the trail back to Welch just south of Gilbert. The trip back was 113 miles. 265 total miles for the two days. The connector is nice but very long, I wouldn't care to ride from one end to the other and then have to turn around and ride it back. The Rockhouse end is pretty far from Gilbert or Man.
I just marked that ride off of my Bucket List. | |
