Description

Drive By Truckers is a great easy-intermediate trail with some very fast sections and a few quick climbs. There's nothing too hard or technical on this trail, so you can really fly. Watch out for hikers/runners, and since this is a two-way trail, watch out for fellow bikers as well.

Riding it from the road up makes for a nice change of pace— it's slower and more challenging.

Fun prelude to Widespread, good warm up with speed, roots, rocks, drops, and a few jumps and berms, although some could use maintenance, good overal
