Five2Ride: Mountain Bike Trails in West Virginia

If any state can claim to be located in Appalachia, it’s West Virginia. While geographers and US Census folks may disagree about whether or not West Virginia is located in the South, the Mid-Atlantic, or the Upland South, they can all agree that it’s located in Appalachia.
