PUTTING TRACKS ON THE BRANCHES

THE CREEPER TRAIL aka THE ABINGDON BRANCH

September 17, 2016

The N&WHS is pleased to announce the fall bike ride. Again, we will be riding on the Abingdon Branch, but this year we will ride from Abingdon VA to Damascus VA. Our 17 mile ride will include many stops along the way as a guide tells stories of this part of the world-famous Creeper trail.

The date for this ride is September 17, 2016, and we will be using The Bike Station in Damascus as our outfitters.

We will depart Damascus at 9am SHARP! Riders will be transported to the head of the Creeper trail in Abingdon and then enjoy a pleasant ride back to Damascus. Along the way, we will get to see famous bridges and scenery that the branch is known for.

The Bike Station is at 504 E 3rd street in Damascus Va. Please be there at 8:30am so we can get loaded up and leave promptly at 9 am. Last year we had a lot of fun doing this and we hope to see everyone there for a fun and instructional time. The Creeper trail is not a difficult ride, and as noted, we will be stopping frequently.
