We are starting a trail club in the Alleghany Highlands area of Virginia. The purpose is to maintain local trails located on lands in The George Washington National Forest, Douthat State Park, and The Nature Conservancy. We will also initiate a program to stop littering and help maintain our beautiful, mountainous environment. This will help the Town of Clifton Forge Virgina, as it transitions into an ecotourism type economy.
Trail Club Startup – Clifton Forge VA – Alleghany Highlands
Locals and visitors of CFVA are familiar with Jack Mason’s Tavern located downtown. If you visit Jack’s you more than likely have met one of their staff members, Mike Scales. Mike is taking the initiative to help get the trail club started by raising funds.
In order to raise initial funds, He will participate in a 270 mile mountain bike event spanning the rough, backcountry trails and dirt roads between Harrisonburg and Roanoke, Virginia, on a single speed mountain bike. The fun begins Saturday, April 7th at 7:00am.
