MTB trails for Incheon


Korea is flush with dirt trails, I mean they are everywhere. Why not? Korea is >70% mountains and people have been walking these hills for centuries. The problem is that the trails go straight up or straight down the hill. Long, swooping trails that remind one of the Jedi warrior cycles in the woods are really rare. Here's what we're doing about it, http://mtbincheon.blogspot.com/
Support for the project has been fantastic with corporations and organizations stepping right up with all sorts of support ranging from pure manpower to offering engineering services.

When the Incheon bridge finally connects to Songdo next year it will be possible to arrive at flowing singletrack in as little as 20 minutes after you leave the airport.

Nope, not me. I poached it from the interweb. A keen eye would have notice that the rider is riding a teeny-tiny child-like 26" wheeled bike. A real blasphemy if you ask me since the answer is
"29er" when asked "WWJR?".
