High Point

The easiest of the "Spaghetti Loop Trilogy". Multiple intersecting loops around SARA Park without duplication. All rideable by an intermediate\advanced rider, but has some intense uphill sections and the tricky Scratch .
There are some loops that cross each other so check the map carefully.
Mainly intermediate, but includes the advanced trail of Scratch on the way back (Spoke would be an easier alternative or avoid the last section of Scratch and come back down Criminal). Takes about 2.5 hours.
