Mother Nature forced us off our original course but riders don’t let down your guard. Actually, better brace yourselves because we’ve got something to delight you single track lovers: Douglas mountain bike reserve, Townsville’s premier XC and All mountain trail network.
The 2018 XCM course is a mouth watering serving from this suburban single track smorgasbord. Flowy single track, techy rock roll downs, berms, structures, views of sprawling neighbourhoods below, all with a tropical ocean and island backdrop to have you screaming for more.
Get ready for an all-you-can-eat riding feast.

Trail 21 Jump ST
The natural trail speed isn't quite there for the first jump in, not to mention the grip on the sandy corner

I think you will find the description is still correct and you may be thinking of the new built trail next to keelback. It probably isn't on trail forks yet.
