Been meaning to get out to this place for quite a while now, and finally made the effort, took the day off from work and grabbed a couple of good riding buddies, one of which drove, thanks Steve!
Walnut Creek park is located just to the south of Charlottesville, off Rt 29 and some backroads and has about 15 miles of nice singletrack, some fast and swoopy, some rather rocky and technical, but all FUN! Rode the singlespeed w/ 32x20 gearing which was about perfect so long as no slow pokes were riding granny up the hill in front...there were only a couple climbs that I couldn't clean - mostly due to loose rock or slick roots killing my momentum.
Also has a disc-golf course and swimming available.
Definitely worth another visit...gotta get back to Sherando again though.
