    The old rutted out Black Mountain was probably the best downhill run on the entire East Coast.

    A few weeks ago we shuttled up to Glub Gap and rode Buckwheat to Bennet and then did lower Sycamore before riding back to The Hub. I do love some Middle to Lower. It's my go-to trail route most of the time.

    enjoying that beer after the ride looked alot better than driving an hour to get the shuttle vehicle HAHA... Next trip... NOT IT! 😅

      Hey, I shuttled you guys to the top and drove the car back down. It’s Glenn’s turn. Oh wait and you got extra laps at heart break ridge😛

    If you do the shuttle again, I would recommend trying Pilot > Buckwheat > Bennet or Pilot > Avery. You still have to climb Club Gap, but you skip all of the hike a bike at upper black and both of those routes are a blast. You would just park at the gravel road leading to the horse stables instead of parking at The Hub.
    I'm sure what you did was a blast, but I suspect you spent an extra 45min+ going across upper black mountain. Some sweet views for sure, but also a good bit of hiking. I also get wanting to do all of the black mtn trails if it is your first time there, because they are amazing trails.

      Good recommendations. Hopefully I can get back soon and rip these trails!

      we did avery laps the next day and black again... I've ridden just about every trail down there multiple times and I think the shuttle from pilot rock to black full pull is really hard to beat

      @@Projectnortheast Black is definitely fun, and I meet people all the time who like doing the full thing like you did. I personally just don't prefer the hike a bike section of upper. I prefer to ride upper upper going west, and I'd rather climb maxwell and climb upper to turkeypen, then turn around for the eastern parts. To each their own though - it is really hard to have a bad time on those trails.
      If you get a chance, try Pilot > Buckwheat > Bennet > Climb Clawhammer & Maxwell > Mid & Lower Black. Or swap Buckwheat & Bennet with Avery. Similar effort imo, but I like it more.

      @Jon Calhoun I've ridden all those trails in different order and I can see the desire to ride them that way. My struggle is always I'm there for a quick visit so how can I get the most out of the rides for multiple days in a row without killing ourselves 😅
