Is there anyoine out there near the coastal carolina area? im from jacksonville, nc and am looking to maybe do some trail riding if there is anyone out there who is nearby and knows of places to go.

I am not out there any more, was stationed at CLNC for 8 1/2 years, but I can tell you that there aren't very many places IN Jacksonville to go other than the beach or power line roads... unless you know someone that owns some land. If you don't mind a little drive you should check out uwharrie.

Several of us on ENCXC.org (Eastern North Carolina Xterra Club) go to URE often for weekend trips, check out the site for dates when we go.
