Looking for a new place to mountain bike? One of IMBA’s (International Mountain Bike Association)  Epic Trails is not that far from us, Cooper’s Gap, Rothrock State Forest in Pennsylvania.

From IMBA’s web-site:

The 2013 class of Epics celebrates true backcountry riding experiences that are technically and physically challenging, more than 80 percent singletrack and at least 20 miles in length.

Cooper’s Gap, Rothrock State Forest, Pennsylvania, USA — This 27-mile ride features extended downhills, flowy technical sections, narrow singletrack, ample solitude and views of the Kishacoquillas Valley.

One of Rothrock State Forest’s best playgrounds, this 27-mile ride features extended downhills, flowy technical sections, narrow singletrack, ample solitude and views down into the Kishacoquillas Valley. Multiple trail options means it’s easy to ride all day and to potentially get lost, but you’re never too far from the road in case you need to bail out.
