One of my fav XC trails in New England - beautiful scenery, and spends a lot of time near the edges of cliffs. Taking away the exposure factor, it's not as technically challenging as the single black trails in this riding area.
Tinshield
Some of the nicest, technical, singletrack I’ve ridden in a long time. Overall, nothing too crazy and the transitions are perfect. Beautiful forest as well.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
