Description
This course is on private property and is only open a few of times a year by the landowners, don't miss the opportunity to ride this trail as the limited usage keeps it in great condition and the terrain is challenging for FL. Expect a nominal fee to have access for the day when open.
Intermediate skill level riding, located around an old rock quarry, many elevation changes using the quarry terrain and medium to long climbs thoughout, similar to Razorback MTB Park(only @ 30min south!). Hardpack tread base, this course holds up well in rainy conditions except climbs can get very slick due to limestone, lots of singletrack with intermittent jeep roads, the area around the "widowmaker" section is the most demanding.
This is a great trail to visit during race weekends, check www.goneriding.com for dates.

Review: Road the this trail this weekend and it was amazing. It's a very tough course with a lot if inclines and declines. Better make sure your brakes are in good shape or else you might end up off a cliff. This trail isn't for someone who likes to ride 20 miles through the woods to enjoy the view.

Review: This place was right on the mark, I've been told about this place and that it is only open once a year and That I had to ride it. Well I did and it was awesome. It is going on my calendar to ride this place each year.

Review: Rode this for my first ever mountain bike race. The trail was very interesting and overall pretty fun to ride; however, the trail doesn't really flow very well and it is hard to get into a rhythm on this trail. Think some of these items were introduced to increase the difficulty - blind 90 degree corner into a climb with soft soil. I think I would have preferred a more flowing course. Def worth going out and riding in if you get the chance - the two descents into the rock queries and the climbs out are great.
Review: Was their this weekend for the 2008 Florida MTB Championship series. Awesome race, awesome trails1
