Coming from an old competitive MTB racer, this will be very cool, especially considering the elevation changes in Fayetteville and the surrounding area. Really glad money is being spent to take advantage of the topography.
Having said that, nothing about the article screams world class MTB trail, other than they put it in the title. If it's a shared-use trail (meaning bikers, hikers, runners, & adaptive bikes), it's not going to be a world class MTB trail.
The article also specifies that the entire 18 miles are beginner level. As with skiing, to be world class, you're gonna have to offer more than bunny slopes.
Love it. Just set realistic expectations up front.
