Trail Description:
The trails are wide and roll up and down a large foothill that overlooks the Muskingum River. There are many super fast downhills that are crazy long. That one hill is the fuckest. Some technical sections. So look out! That cliff goes all the way down. If it rains put on your big treads cause climbing is a bitch, the downhills are like slippery ski slopes and fun as all get out! The trails are marked with what can best be described as totem faces that seem warn you of impending doom. When you’re done ridding you can always cool off in the mosquito hatchery that used to be a pool. Oh by the way don’t get your business caught in your spokes. That hurts like a mutha. No seriously, Velo-z is way bizarre and way fast. Well worth a long drive, my man! Peace.

How to get there:
From Columbus:70 east to Zanesville then go 60 south. Take this through Duncan Falls. After Duncan Falls it's a few miles on your left.

You'll see a gravel driveway going up where the cliff rock ends. Just park Next to the burnt out cars. Welcome to another dimension

Additional Notes:
We did are best with the description, but I know others will agree that these are great trails. This

Unfortunately this property was sold and the new owners have closed the trails down. It is now private property. It is a shame to close down such a promising and challenging area.

To bad Velo-Z had to close it was a kickin' trail
