Hi Everyone!
Let me introduce myself: My name is Laura and I am a graduate student at Lehigh University. I have been riding some sort of bike or another for almost 10 years now (I even raced road bikes for a season). As I am new to the area, I was wondering about possible places to mountain bike. I have already discovered Jordan Creek Park and I absolutely love it. Since I live on Fountain Hill, I checked out the nearby Salisbury Trails...however, these trails are way beyond my ability level. I'm hoping to garner some rock-riding skill so I can take on these trails. Does anyone have any tips on how to get better on riding rocky trails? For some reason, I freeze up upon seeing a garden of rocks coming my way and, of course, I fall or stumble or make any other display of biking incompetence..haha (it's a good show for others who are more skilled, though!).
I have heard something about a place called Jacobsburg that has some good trails. I have no idea how to get there, though. Does anyone know the directions to that place?
I do have some skill on the mountain bike as I used to ride all the time when I went to Penn State for undergrad. However, I definitely have room for improvement (and I need to get into basic riding shape again)! So any information on good skill development trails would be greatly appreciated. I look forward to a summer filled with mountain biking in the Lehigh Valley 
Happy riding!
Laura
