Mountain Bike
Great little trail loop near I-95. Not much else around the area for mountain bikers but this trails makes the best out of the flat terrain. About 2 miles of the loop is on wide singletrack, the rest is on twisty and at times tight singletrack in the dense pine forest. Be sure to wear your helmet, not because you might fall but because there are tons of low branches on this infrequently maintained trail. At times the trail is hard to follow and you'll find several unexpected twists and turns as you build up speed. Overall a nice place to ride, perfect for those new to the sport.
