"The Ringgold Conservation Commission has recently ""updated"" the surface of the first mile on the trailway with asphalt. It's not as much fun for me personally, but that has helped increase traffic on the trail, which is the point of trails in the first place, right?
It's a good quick spin; flat, shaded, etc. Watch out for the pedestrians the first mile, and the deer the second- I spotted three on my last trip, and they didn't get worried until I was within @90 feet. "
