Two of the better venues in the Raleigh area are Beaver Dam & New Light; both on the shores of Falls Lake, on or near Creedmor Rd, North of Hwy 98. Check out http://www.trianglemtb.com/beaverdam.php Beaver Dam is great for a newbie, with an easy to follow trail layout and good map. Also buff trails; the stunts all have go arounds. New Light is far more technical, and the maps don't match the trails very well. Still, a good place to ride, but with more challenges, both riding & navigating. Lots of good riding in the Western end of the state. Tsali, in Pisgah NF, near Asheville is good. PM me if you want to ride. Berry
