Default Spearhead Trails, St. Paul, VA

I went and checked this place out yesterday. I didn't get on the trail until 2, and only rode for a couple of hours. There is only one trail in and out of the parking lot. Green Trail 1/1A. On a weekend I imagine that trail could be quite busy. It is well maintained in places, but looks like the blue CAW trails in alot of places. The blue trails that I saw, 29, 26 and 17 were more narrow and steep, usually down, and more suited for 4 wheelers. All trails appear to be 2 way.

It's about 4 miles from the parking lot to blue 26 and about another mile on green trail 1 to where trail 2 is. I turned around at that point. The trails are well marked, and in overall good condition. I would have no problem riding the green trails all day. I'm sorry I got such a late start.

I was told on the phone that golf carts would be OK if they could handle the trails, but the rules on the back of the map says "machines may not be self-constructed or modified" and "shall be equipped with ROPS and seat belts from the manufacturer". No one was there to check my equipment. It was basically deserted on a Tuesday afternoon.

I'll go back for a day trip sometime in the spring--with a much earlier start.

Sorry for the bad picture quality.
