No news is good news
I have ridden GBC and VBR but that was before BCSP and VSP. GBC and VBR were the sh** back then and I'm sure they are just about the same. That kind of riding doesn't exist in the state parks and I, for one, miss it.

That kind of riding doesn't exist in the state parks and I, for one, miss it. So this is the part I can't figure out. Seems like lots of folks like to bash IMBA style trails. But then they pass over old school trails to ride the IMBA spec trails. When riders complain that we cut out too many trees, the trails aren't steep enough, it's too crowded, too many beginner trails, etc... I wonder why they don't ride at VBR or Gnawbone, or Hickory.

If you are willing to ride with an old slow guy
If you are willing to ride with an old slow guy, I'm always willing to show folks around either place. I have probably over 1000 rides there.
If you're in BCSP, you aren't going to get lost. All the MTB'ing trails connect and believe all the hiking trails do too. Now, go out and run in Hoosier National and that's different game! Honestly, if I were in your shoes, I would give Hoosier some attention. Great trails and you can get in all of the mileage you'll ever need and won't be conflicting much (if any) with any other users.

I was looking for the info on GBC. Is the camp still open for riding? The link above seems to go nowhere now.
