Trail Description:
The Road & Trail Cyclery bike shop has carved out two cool intermediate trails on their property in Oxford, GA. You will find mostly singletrack trails with a bunch of switchbacks and several short climbs including Granny Gear Hill and then Chain Buster Hill. Most intermediate riders can handle the climbs. There are also a few technical sections full of roots but not too many rocks.

The trails are broken down into two sections- The Short Trail which is four miles long and the Long Trail which is the Short Trail plus an addtional 4 mile section.

The Short Trail is good for novice riders although they may have to walk up a couple of the hills.

The Long Trail is more of the same... only 4 miles longer.

How to get there:
From Atlanta take I-20 east to exit 46. Turn left at the end of the ramp and go 2.6 miles. Take a right on Airport Road and follow the signs.

From Lawrenceville, GA take GA20 towards Loganville. In Loganville take GA81 south to Oxford. In Oxford make a left onto Richardson Street. Follow Richardson St to the stop sign. As you cross the road the name changes to Airport Rd. Follow signs to bike shop.
