Mountain Biking
Mountain biking is the fastest activity at
Cheerio Adventures. All bikes and helmets are provided for programs. The
bikes are mountain bikes, with front shocks.
The level and experience required ranges from little to
moderate. The basic requirement is that the participant can ride a bike.
There
are two types of trails used by Cheerio Adventures. One being Rails to
Trails and the other single-track trails. The Rails to Trails are old
railroad grade that have been converted into hike, bike and horse trails.
The two that are used in the Cheerio Adventures program are the Virginia
Creeper Trail and the New River Trail State Park. Both are for beginners
and intermediates being that they are smooth, wide and have no obstacles.
The single-track trails are hiking and horse trails that
are paths 2 to 4 feet wide. They are uneven and have minor obstacles and
creek crossing. These trails are for the novice to intermediate bikers.
The Iron Mountain and Virginia Highlands Horse trail are the two that
we use most often. Seekers use these trails.
The following is a list of all Cheerio Adventures
programs that include mountain biking:
