I stumbled on to this today while looking for information on a Tri. Apparently there is a Mountain Bike event in Rocky Mount this weekend! Registration starts at 9:00 am. Riders Meeting is a 10:00 am, and the race starts at 10:30 am. The entry fee is only $10 for a beginner, and $20 for everyone 
else. Here are some links about the event:
Sounds like the course will be very technical. If you can't ride it, you may enjoy taking the family out to watch. If we want events like this to keep coming to Rocky Mount, we need to show that we can support them.
This is a trials competition. I did not know that this was hosted in Rocky Mount at all. If you have never seen trials, it is rather spectator friendly for a bike event as it all takes place in a closed, small course. Kids love it because there is tons of jumping and hopping. It is all about balance and brake/bike control.
