That brings up a great question:No. But for someone in NJ, you can wake up here and be riding there by lunch. Sedona is amazing but the door-to-door makes it much harder to reach. If BV were 6 hours away, it would be a different conversation. Asheville is also 12 hours away. You could decide to go to KT for the weekend on a Friday at 5pm, get 2 days of great riding in, and be home Sunday night. Sedona, BV, Asheville, etc - these fall under a different "ease of use" category.
It also depends what you are looking for. If you like the town vibe with a lot of coffee shops, restaurants, and bars, then KT is not ideal. Yes it is more of a mountain town but it is also somewhat desolate, especially on a weekday.
of all the places that are "wake up and ride there at noon" which have you done or liked? I think of all the ones Im listing, Kingdom trails are the best developed infrastructure and trail system, but others certainly are as big. Leaving out more "local" stuff like Wiss, White Clay, anything in Jersey or in PA east of Reading/Wilkes-Barre.
Thinking about
Patapsco - Ellicott City
Laurel Highlands- Ohiopyle
Rothrock/Rattlin Creek - State College
Allegrippis - BFE
Any in southern NY/CTthat I dont know?
The first three have much more than one day's worth riding nearby. I included Allegrippis cause its more than a days trails, smaller than the rest, but still a destination.
