new start is Laurel Point parking lot. Bigger better parking lot, should be not too far from the other parking lot. Raccoon Mtn - Just West of downtown Chattanooga. Special start time 12:00 gather, 12;30 start (EASTERN TIME) due to the heat & the hares request. WineHo & GE had a blast riding these trails last weekend and wanted us to all enjoy them.
