Description:
Semi-boring trail. Dry and loose in some parts. The trail smells nice in spring with all the broom and lupins but it's a pretty dumb ride though. Too overgrown and a few lycra wearing a-holes that bomb down the trail and expect YOU to give way. Trail etiquette is non existent with this lot. So be careful if you're on a narrow climb and some lycra commando comes barrelling down towards you. They're not prepared to stop.
