Mt. Zion in Brookhaven is one of Mississippi's BEST Mountain Biking trails HANDS DOWN!!

[@treyknott2742]

Me and my brother, Andrew Knott, originally built Knott head as his Eagle Scout project. We got plenty of help from the trail builders, and it was a lot of fun riding something we built ourselves.

[@JaredRMorgan]

Whattt....Love hearing the back story! You still ride out there sometimes?

[@RaztechPowersports]

Excellent trail system 🇺🇸

[@JaredRMorgan]

Oh yes. Crowd favorite!

[@SpectorSpider]

Completely new to mountain biking, but this looks like hella fun. Gotta head out there one day!!

[@JaredRMorgan]

Thank you! I got another coming out in a few days recorded here as well. A much better vid, in my opinion, as my editing has gotten better.

Thanks for watching!

You should come check out Bonita Lakes sometime in Meridian, MS - my local trails. We are known by most in MS as the toughest, most technical trails in MS.

[@JaredRMorgan]

Is it just tech? Or are there other features as well?

[@sixstanger00]

@@JaredRMorgan One of the downhills we use for Super Ds has several wooden drops. It's all hand cut single track with roots, rocky sections, steep climbs, steep descents. A full loop is about 12-14 miles. The biggest challenge is the elevation. The climbs are brutal, but you're rewarded with some fun descents. The most infamous climb being Hamburger Hill - a 1/4 mile trail that ascends 200 ft. Historically, the trails are used annually for the Mississippi State Games MTB Race. I've been told in the past that some out-of-town racers refuse to race here because it's so tough. (But it's where I learned to MTB, soo..🤷‍♂️)

Sounds like fun!

@@JaredRMorgan It is. If you're on FB, look up our local group: EMMB (East Mississippi Mountain Bikers). If you decide to head this way, let us know and we'll be glad to show you around.

[@dlsmithy]

This is so cool! I had no idea these trails were here. I have family and land in Brookhaven. We will definitely be trying these trails out!👍🏻

[@JaredRMorgan]

Oh yeah they’re really good, and they’ve only gotten better! I gotta get back out there myself.

[@ign1te-yt754]

If you’re in to technical trails, petal has some good ones

[@JaredRMorgan]

Whats the name of the trail system?

[@kensworld1979]

Petal river park mtn bike trails

Hey, right across the street there should be 2 houses. One is a trailer and the other is a brick house. They have a pond in the front with 2 driveways and a pond in the back. I used to live in the brick house across the pond from across the street. I wish I could move back, I road my bike on this trails when I was little. There could have been some changes, The fence on our old house used to not be there, and there used to not be a shed in the middle. When I lived there no one ever came to these trails, and they had no where near as much stuff.

[@JaredRMorgan]

Wow! Still a really cool place to grow up! You ever go back for a ride since?

[@BigCountryKracker]

@@JaredRMorgan nope, I ain’t been back since I lived there, I should go back cause there’s a lot of changes from the videos I can tell

[@JaredRMorgan]

Oh yeah bro it’s a ton of fun!

[@doctajuice]

Why didn't you show the alternate lines at wishbone or the talladega berm right after?

[@JaredRMorgan]

Only usable clips make it to the final cut. There’s a ton of reasons why I may not have featured those lines. It’s been a while since I made this one, so I don’t recall a particular reason.

[@LouisSchruff]

Nice

[@hollenbeck2nowhere]

I haven’t been there in 4 years! Looks like some cool added features 👍🔥

[@JaredRMorgan]

It’s my go to spot for bike reviews! Nothing insane, but it’s got a little bit of everything and the crowd out there is always really cool. I have as much fun at the trail head hanging out as I do on the trails riding. Good place.

[@hollenbeck2nowhere]

@@JaredRMorgan I think I might have to make a detour there on my way to New York. 🤔

[@JaredRMorgan]

For sure! If you got the time, show them some love. Where are you out of?

[@hollenbeck2nowhere]

@@JaredRMorgan I am out of Dallas originally. I am resting in Austin. I am about to head out again to New York to go see my daughters. I will go to New Orleans and then make my way north. That’s the plan but with everything that’s going on I change plans quite a bit.

[@JaredRMorgan]

Right on well if you want to meet up for a Collab video that might be cool! I’m in Nola and I rode Zion a lot.
