Way to go, lady shredders!

Over 50 women from ages 9 to 60 came out to celebrate #WomensMTBDay today at Bur-Mil Park!

Expert volunteers led skills clinics, bike maintenance demos, and group rides. New skills were learned, boundaries were pushed, and MANY laughs were had by all.

Thank you to everyone who made this day possible: @cyclesdeoro @getoutdoorsnc @galacticbikes @revolutioncyclesmustdie @clemmonsbicycle @bicycletoyandhobbyhp @drinkthesunshine @jimmyjohns and of course, all our volunteers!!!

Can’t wait until next year 🤘

When it comes to bike maintenance, it always feels so empowering when we know how to fix stuff on our bikes. Shout out to @bill.davis17 of @moto_cycles17 for hosting our bike maintenance clinic at Saturday’s International Women’s MTB Day!

The animal involved in the recent attacks, if diseased, would have died by now and is no longer a threat. Please always be cautious of any unusual behavior from wild animals.

Thanks for your patience, and stay safe out there!

The search continues. Many game officers and other officials are searching, and despite their hard work, they have yet to capture or recover the possibly diseased animal responsible for attacking trail goers. Therefore, the associated trails (Owl’s Roost, Shady Side, Wild Turkey, and Nat Greene) will remain closed through the 16th.

In the meantime, please utilize alternate trails and monitor trail openings and closures from our website (http://piedmontfattire.org) or the trails hotline: 336-373-2MTB (2862).

Wet winter weather made a big mess of hiking and biking trails. The ice storms and higher than average rainfall left trails with hazardous fallen trees and slippery treads.

Did you know that it takes 4 hours to clear 1 mile of trail?

Ask not what your trail association can do for you

Ask not what your trail association can do for you - ask what you can do...

We're actively recruiting chairpersons for committees and for the board of directors. We're looking for folks who are passionate about our MTB community to help us keep the wheels turnin' and it takes a team to do it. If you're interested in serving your local trial association, there's almost no better way! Please email us at president@piedmontfattire.org by March 8th for more information. 🙋🏼🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♂️

On a scale from Bernie to Cam, how stoked are you to get out on the trails this weekend?!

All trails are open except Reedy Fork which has been flooded by beavers again. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Weather looks great, but check our website for trail status updates throughout the weekend.

New Year. New Singletrack.

One of our frequently asked questions has been, "Will there be a third phase of the Kingfisher trail instead of it just ending in the middle of the woods?" There is now an exciting answer! YES!!

The PFTS has been selected to participate in a RTP (Recreation Trail Program) Grant. We are looking forward to signing a contract in the beginning of January, which will fund us adding another 3 miles of new trail and an additional future parking lot to our Watershed Trails System. The total contribution of this matching grant program to our community is $104,806.

We are very grateful for partnerships with the @gsoparksandrec, @iamspecialized, & @rei which assist the PFTS in building high quality trails providing outstanding recreational benefits for residents of our Piedmont communities.
