This Mountain is Amazing!!! Stoke Level Was Through the Roof – MTB Mt Penn [FTR Series]

Mt Penn in Reading PA continues to impress and amaze! Our Sunday mountain bike ride took us through some of our favorite features and a few new ones including 1 in 10, Sam Malone, Rock Bridge, John’s Rock, Coach, and the Scorpion and Dee Snider skinnies. Most of these features are rated black and should be ridden with caution if it is your first time. This ride happened on June 2, 2024. Note: Since most of these are not labeled on Trailforks, Dan and I came up with our own names to help us navigate around the mountain. TRAIL DETAIL: 1 in 10 (aka Boulder Field) can be found right off List Rd, it tends to get overgrown in the summer so keep your eyes peeled for it. Sam Malone and Coach are slab tech lines located near “Chuck Chutes and Ladders” on Trailforks. John’s Rock and the Scorpion skinny are located near the Wine Cellar near “S-Turns”. Rockover can be found on “Stone Hedge” The other skinnies featured in the video including Dee Sinder (teeter totter skinny) are located on a trail called “Twisted Sister”, but you have to venture off the main trail to find them.
