The first 2.5 miles of the trail are easy and smooth - great for beginners and a good warm-up. The next 1.5 miles is more advanced - lots of rocks, short ledges, and tight turns to hone your skills. When you get to the end turn around and you'll get a good 8 miles of riding in. See here for details: Friends of Shutes Branch... Shutes Branch Trail Map

AEDC is very flat and fast, 13.1 miles, ride all day.

For more details including a trail map and points of interest, visit the Tim's Ford Google Map. Tim's Ford is an out and back with a lot of steep climbing (will get you in shape quick) and super sweet single track. Park at the visitors center and follow the paved bike trail until it dead ends and then take a right on the trail.

There has been about a mile or two added to the upper loop. Get out and ride it in!! It's pretty twisty and has some very steep switchbacks. And it goes by a huge sinkhole - no cave though. This is one cool trail on a 300 ft high ridge side. We did the upper loop once and the lower twice for 11.3 miles. If you haven't ridden this trail, you should. It has the most relief of any trail in Mid-TN. Tim's for is a close second (but I think it actually has more total climbing). Defeated Creek Trail Map

The trail actually has about 6 miles of trail to offer. The trails are only marked in certain areas but all of the trails are easily found. There is an area where the locals are putting together some stuff for the freeride crowd and each of the obstacles still have a way to get around them if that isn't your thing. If you are in the clarksville area and are jonesing for a ride. It's there. Friends of Rotary Park

Azalea Trail #141: Beginner/1.5 miles. This ride is fun for beginners and experts alike, with fast narrow singletrack leading mostly downhill (if you start across the lower campground road). You can use this trail to connect up with the rest of the system or just as a short loop back to the campground area.
Benton Falls Trail #131: Moderate/1.5 miles. This wide track leads from the lake to the waterfall. Watch for hikers and be respectful.
Clemmer Trail #302: Advanced/1.5 miles. 4.5 miles on Benton Falls Trail to the junction of Trail #302. A classic screaming downhill or a gut wrenching uphill (depending on which direction you ride it). Clemmer has it all: several creek crossings, rhododendron tunnels and surfaces ranging from sandy to rocky. The high end of the trail is at the beautiful Benton Falls (accessible from a short hiking trail.)
Clear Creek Trail: Advanced/3+ miles. One of the most challenging trails in the system; be ready for some killer climbing, 3 extreme switchbacks, one of which is just barely but not impossible to ride. Be very careful especially in the middle of this trail where there is a fairly steep rock cliff area. Near the end, be ready for an extremely fast downhill with some wonderful whoops to fly off of. There are a couple of options at the end of this downhill depending of how wet you want to get.
Rim Extension: Moderate/0.4. A short technical sidetrail.
Slickrock Trail Loop: Advanced 3+ miles. A sweet trail system which is actually a small network of trails hooked together by a couple of old Forest Service Roads. You will find singltrack with climbing twists and turns and some fun downhills with whoopde-doos. One section has been unofficially named Naked Widow Loop. This stems from several sightings of an elderly woman bathing in the small creek at the middle of the branch. Legend has it she lived with her husband on the Benton side of the mountain when her husband died, whereupon she began to endlessly wander the trails.
