Greensboro is a city in North Carolina. The Greensboro Science Center houses red pandas, sharks and a hands-on museum. Nearby, Guilford Courthouse National Military Park has displays on the American Revolution. Video re-enactments and interactive exhibits trace the civil rights struggle at the International Civil Rights Center & Museum. The Bog Garden is a wetlands area with flowers, birds and an elevated boardwalk.
In 1808, Greensborough (the spelling before 1895) was planned around a central courthouse square to succeed Guilford Court House as the county seat. The county courts were thus placed closer to the geographical center of the county, a location more easily reached at the time by the majority of the county's citizens, who depended on horse and foot for travel. It is named after Nathanael Greene, a Patriot general who fought a battle here during the Revolutionary War. Population is about 250,000. The famous author William Sydney Porter, better known as O. Henry, was born here. It can be sleepy and genteel but is enjoying a newfound reputation as a great place for young people. Downtown especially is experiencing a surfeit of bars, music venues and restaurants.
Among Greensboro's many notable attractions, some of the most popular include the Wet 'n Wild Emerald Pointe water park, the Greensboro Science Center, the International Civil Rights Museum, the Weatherspoon Art Museum, the Greensboro Symphony, the Greensboro Ballet, Triad Stage, the Wyndham Golf Championship, the headquarters of the Atlantic Coast Conference, the Greensboro Coliseum Complex which hosts various sporting events, concerts, and other events, the Greensboro Grasshoppers of the South Atlantic Baseball League, the Carolina Dynamo of the Premier Development Soccer League, the Greensboro Swarm of the NBA G League, the Greensboro Roller Derby, and the National Folk Festival.
Greensboro is located among the rolling hills of North Carolina's Piedmont, situated midway between the state's Blue Ridge and Great Smoky Mountains to the west and the Atlantic beaches and Outer Banks to the east. The view of the city from its highest building—the Lincoln Financial tower (commonly known as the Jefferson-Pilot Building after its previous owner)—shows an expanse of shade trees in the city. Downtown Greensboro has attracted development investment in recent years with such new construction as Yadkin Bank Park, and residential and offices. The Southside neighborhood downtown exemplifies central-city reinvestment. The Four Seasons Town Centre is a three-story shopping mall with 1,141,000 square feet (106,000 m2) of shopping space. The Greensboro Coliseum is located at 1921 W. Gate City Boulevard. This multi-purpose complex consists of the 22,000-seat Greensboro Coliseum.

Dayhiking Greensboro, NC's Palmetto and Nat Greene Trails
Join Survivalist2008 on a dayhike of Greensboro, NC's Palmetto and Nat Greene Trails, June 2014. The trails parallel the western and eastern side of Lake Brandt's southern arm. Palmetto Trail is an easy 1.6 mile hike thru mixed woodlands, rolling hills and ridges loaded with beech trees, open woodland pastures, and wetlands traversed by wooden board walks. Waterfowl, deer, and squirrels are some of the wildlife who frequent the habitat.
Please Leave No Trace when visiting the outdoors. Thanks!

Greensboro Mountain Biking story. (unfinished)
Finch Park Mountain Bike Trail | Lexington NC
Located in the BBQ Capitol of the world, Lexington NC, this may be the only MTB trail in Davidson County.
This is a new trail that is actually a old trail. According to their website in the 90's, a handful of dedicated mountain bikers began to build trails at Finch Park in order to enjoy their favorite pastime. Eventually, for various reasons these trails became neglected. With renewed interest in mountain biking in the area, trail advocates saw the potential to recover and modernize these trails.
We have the local cycling club Roadies and Dirties to thank for bringing this trail back for us to enjoy.
Finch Park 15 Paul Beck Road
Lexington, NC 27292

Racing in the Woods - Northeast Park - Gibsonville NC
My first MTB race in a long time. Good to be back on the bike! This race started off poorly...first crank to go and my chain dropped and wedged. After fixing, I went hard to catch back on, but I'd probably gone too hard. I then got stuck behind a rider who wouldn't yield, and I crashed trying to go around. After that I chilled out a little and passed up to 5th place. That was definitely the best I was going to do, the top 4 riders were very strong and I wouldn't have been able to hang anyway. Good ride, really good workout! This is a great race series, thanks to the promoters for putting it on!

Hike of Osprey Trail ~ Completed
In this video, I complete the hike of the Osprey Trail, skirting the southern edge of Lake Townsend, one of Greensboro, NC's most beautiful watershed trails. The western end of the Osprey Trail features boardwalks crossing swampy habit for wildlife, as well as a beaver pond. Again, I thought that I heard an Osprey; however I'm not sure. This is one trail that I definitely will have to check out again.
The Osprey Trail is a segment of the Mountains To The Sea Trail.
Thanks for watching, and take care!
