The Delaware Trail Spinners have done a great job at Middle Run, Judge Morris Estate and White Clay Creek State Park. There is a great map at trailspinners.org All three of these areas are enter connected and there is a lot of very good single track riding with lots of ups and downs. There is something for every body and a lot of good riding. Once again go to the Delaware Trailspinners web site for a map.

Great run! Relatively well marked and challenging. I wouldn't recommmend it for the absolute novice but most others will have a blast. Like Kevins said, whoever built this knew their stuff. Time wise I did two full loops in just under 3hrs. Enjoy!!!

These trails are great and don't let anyone say any different. Whoever cut 'em knew how to make mtb trails that are fun and still rideable. I've ridden all over the US (and raced quite a bit too), and I'm really thankful that someone took the time to make these trails. If you're coming from PA, You can put together a real nice single track loop from the parking lot at the Northern (PA) Park office. If you ride down along the White Clay, then split the David English, Whitely Farms, Bryan's Field trails, then cross over to the Lenape Trail in Middle Run (biggest loop, I think), then come back on Bryan's, Whitely, and English, you get a nice warm-down along the creek going back to the office. At a moderate-fast rate, expect 2-2:20 hours.
