I finally found and took a ride on the Zombie East Trail. This video was supposed to be of my trip to Mexico and footage of me riding a Fat Bike on the beach. The beach wasn't what I had expected and I wasn't able to find a Fat Bike to rent near our resort. I didn't what to waste the footage I had gathered so I added it to the beginning of this video. SORRY, I hope you still enjoy it!! Just off the Rock Hollow Trail with a short, steep climb back up to the ridge line. “Zombie East” is distinguished by epic rock formations scattered along the undulating trail — stout boulders and sharp bluffs that heave into view all around the path. GORC has done an amazing job of incorporating these natural features into the routing; nowhere more so than on a series of hand-built stone switchbacks that mount a ravine midway through this half of the trail. Other hallmarks of Zombie East: a rock “chute” that you travel through and several dirt berms that mountain bikers in particular enjoy swooping down. No wonder this trail is fast becoming the go-to for local backwoods riders. ******THANK YOU Echotrace for letting me use some more of your material, this time I chose "Somethings Gotta Give" and "Break Me" for the sound track. Thanks again guys!!!!****** Tales of strange incidents and ghostly apparitions on “Zombie Road” have existed ever since its creation in the late 1860s. The original dirt and gravel path was carved out of thick trees and brush near Glencoe, Missouri to provide access to the Meramec and the railroad tracks located along the river. One legend says the phantom of an early settler who was struck and killed by a train haunts the dark forest. Another describes a killer who lived in a dilapidated shack by the water and who would attack young lovers who came there looking for privacy. There’s still a lot of buzz about the old road even today, although now it’s because the surrounding woods are home to one of the region’s premier multi-use trails. Built by Gateway Off-Road Cyclists (GORC) over the past several years, Zombie Trail weaves among the high hills on both sides of the road — now paved and called Rock Hollow Trail — providing a happy playground for hikers, runners, mountain bikers and equestrians. A few people have asked me about getting "Old Man ~ Fat Bike" stickers. You can purchase a small (3" x 1.44") sticker for $2.50 or the large (4" x 1.91") sticker for $4.00. If you would like to order one or more please visit the the following link; https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=Z3PX8GS7J44U8 Once I see the transaction I can contact you via email and get your mailing address and find out exactly which sticker or stickers you want. Entire video shot with the SJCAM S6 Legend and from time to time the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge is also used! #FatBike #Fatmtb #OLDMANFATBIKE
