Corner of Peachtree and Randolph Streets in Goldsboro, NC.
Turn in by the car wash to access Stoney Creek North, most needs maintenance, except all the way in the back. Follow walk path, until you see the little pump bumps follow up to the fence line the trail, starts to the left. The South side of the highway you are practically riding over a disc golf course walking path.
Thank |I road this one this afternoon. I was worried about the thorns but managed to have no issues at all.
I really like the flow of the trail, not much coasting and almost constant pedaling keeps you moving through a series of twists and dips amidst the roots. A nice ride through the woods that won't wear you out. The woods are somewhat dense but the trail is very well marked with pink ribbons tied around trees along the way.
There is double track that you see first off, ride that to warm up and on the way back take the spur to where the trails are. Ride until you're tired then head back out.
I have seen this referred to as "Stony Creek North" on another website. * Review edited 9/23/2012
Thank |This is a new trail, started work in January 2012, and is a WIP with additional loops in the plannig stage.
Don't expect to set any speed records here, but don't expect to coast either. A good constant pedal workout with many twists, turns, dips and a couple of root balls and log rolls. You can cool down by riding the "greenway" and then head back into the trails. Easy enough for those starting out in the sport and yet can provide a good challenge for the more advanced rider looking to improve their tight turn capabilities.
Word of caution, you should have a thorn resistant regimen in place. Tubes or tubless I highly recommend adding some form of stop leak gel.
