TORC RTP Trails all skills

Directions and trail info:
Google Maps Parking Lot Location (http://maps.google.com/maps?q=35.852622,-78.88881&hl=en&sll=35.852587,-78.888896&sspn=0.013009,0.027852&oq=louis+stephens&t=h&z=15)

Trail Map (http://www.rtp.org/sites/default/files/RTP_MTB_Ph1-2_small.pdf)

Time: Arrive by ~5:30pm. Ride at 5:45pm

Type of ride: All skills, no drop combined day and night ride. We can split into groups per experience level as necessary.

Speed: Pace is usually in the 6-9.5 mph average speed range depending on the group. I'm flexible. Slow, fast, I don't really care. I just want to get out and ride a bit.

Ride Details: One lap is around 4.5 miles. We should have enough day light for 2 laps. There are bail out options and we'll return to the parking lot after each lap. The second lap we'll take a different route than the first to mix things up. Bring your lights if you're interested in additional night ride lap(s).

Trail Details/Difficulty: RTP Trails are listed on TMTB as intermediate, but perhaps comparable to Crabtree with fewer roots. This is a fun flowy up and down trail that loops back on itself often so the ride options are endless. There are a few fun technical spots and a very nice bridge.

Post Ride Plans: Rally Point? Open to suggestions
