A great route for very advanced riders wanting to see the best descents San Luis Obispo has to offer. Not quite as long as Ultimate Ridge Shuttle Route, but this one still has the gnarliest and steepest trails out there. Route can be extended easily by either pedaling up from town instead of being shuttled, adding additional laps in The Eucs, etc. This route has some seriously gnarly descents, be aware.

This trail has some great new improvements with wide sweeping berms in the top section. The rest of the trail, down to the tracks is just plain fun!
