I have an extra Mountain Bike, so no excuses for not trying out this trail!

Another easy, but very beautiful ride. At the trail head you have three choices, green (easy) about 2.1 miles; blue (intermediate) about 4.7 miles, and red (advanced) 2.6 miles.  We’ll chose the green trail which was a great balance of twists and turns, logs to cross, exposed roots, as well as a few rocks to go over.  The ride will take about 45 minutes.  Bring plenty of water at least 32 oz for the ride and another 32 oz after the ride.

We'll first meet near Ledo Pizza, 7052 Commons Plaza, Chesterfield, VA, just off Beach Road.  I'll have a WHITE 4-dr Honda Accord with trailer hitch bike rack. Then we'll drive down the 3.5 miles to the entrance of the park.

Use mapquest or Maps.Google on "State Park Road and Beach Road, Chesterfield, VA" to get to the turn off and to get to the main gate.

The trail head is near the Nature Center and Heritage Center, about 1/4 mile from the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) Museum.  We'll start the ride in the parking lot near, but not next to the Nature Center (you'll see other bikers parked for sure).
