Trail Description:
The Pines is a section of land leased by the Upper Thames River Conservation Authority to the local cycling club. There is a nice super fast buffed singletrack loop all through the parcel of land. As you can guess it winds through numerous pines (short bars help a lot) with very tight fast corners. I suggest a visit to the local bike shop, Pedal Power, they can point you in the right direction or hook you up with a ride. This is a fun trail to do with a small group (2 or 3). Connect several of the trails to builld a longer ride.

How to get there:
Highway 401 west to the Woodstock turn off. Turn right at the Blandford Mall and head north. Turn right just before the Innerkip bridge over Pittock Lake. Follow the gravel road for 0.5 of a Km. The trails are on your left.

Additional Notes:
Although this land is leased to the cycling club it is a multi-use area. There are numerous other users so practice good trail etiquette.
