Pedal pushers are in abundance in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Mountain biking is a popular pastime in the area, and there is ongoing trail development occurring along the northeast corner of Philpott Lake. That part of the countryside is known as Jamison’s Mill.
In October 2007, a group called Trail Solutions from the International Mountain Biking Association visited the area to assess the land. Trail Solutions is working with the Army Corps of Engineers to make sure Jamison’s Mill develops and remains a great destination for bikers and hikers for years to come.
