I finally have a whole day free on Saturday 11/10 that is perfect for getting my 200 out on some trails. So what are my best options that are a reasonable day trip from Annapolis? Secondary consideration is that I will likely be riding alone and on a relatively unproven bike. So I am not looking for miles and miles of trail. Tough is cool. But I don't want to break with a ten mile hike back to the truck.
I just need a place with some decent single track to play for a few hours to see how this bike works offroad and maybe mess with the suspension setup and jetting. I still haven't decided whether to keep it and really want to see how it works on what it is meant for. There is not much opportunity to get the tires dirty in Annapolis much less hammer the throttle the way this little Tasmanian Devil likes.

Thanks. That would have been my first choice but their web site says Sundays only in November. Must be hunting season there or something.

You could go to Easton MX...old name.. Speedciti. Should be less than an hour from you. The new owners have fixed it up a bit. The intermediate track is pretty good for bike set up and testing. Sorry no trails. Oh and with the storm the may not be open.

Re: Need Suggestions for Single Track Riding
I would suggest Wicomico Motorsports Park...they have 3 mx tracks but more importantly 8 miles of hare scramble style trails and are open weekends year round. No hunting!! There's a lot of elevation change and MUD...and I emphasize MUD! Not really single track because quads ride it too. http://www.wicomicomotorsportspark.com/ Located off Budds Creek Rd in southern MD, so probably an hour from you down 301 then left on Budds Creek Rd.
I've been there with my son and he made it around twice on a Raptor 80. He got hung up a few times because of the Raptors low clearance. There would at least be a lot of other people around in case you have mechanical problems.
As Damage said, Speed Citi is in Easton but they do not have the trails anymore. I believe they are working on it.
