Wheel Family Fun - Old Spokes on Black Cap

Colorful and active Old Spokes' riders gather for a group photo on the top of Black Cap on July 24. (SALLY MCMURDO PHOTO)

I haven’t ridden Hurricane Mountain Zone mountain bike trails in a while. When I heard about recent Black Cap and Red Tail trail improvements, I wanted to check them out.

My opportunity came in an Old Spokes mountain bike group post about a Friday ride in that area. Looked like the perfect chance to try them out with company. The plan was to meet at the Cranmore parking lot and shuttle bikes and people up Hurricane Mountain Road to the Black Cap Trail parking lot. Ten Old Spokes met, and we loaded up.
