Nashville rides limestone country — Percy Warner's rooty hill loops, Hamilton Creek's technical rock, and Lock 4 out on the Cumberland. Thin soil over limestone drains fast in places and turns to slick clay in others, and the rock stays greasy well after the dirt has dried.

Right now 57 of 63 featured Nashville trails are reading soft or too muddy to ride. Nashville is mostly loam soil, which drains at a moderate pace, so after a storm some trails firm up within a day while others stay greasy. Riding wet, soft dirt damages trails and leaves ruts, so check the live mud reading on each trail before you head out. Check the live mud reading →
