This is the trail section of the Budu Swan Creek mountain bike race. The route was modified slightly in 2019 to exit Murphy's Law at the first left turn and then rejoin hustle & flow. This is only the trail section - a full race lap extended onto road 3 and 4, connected by a short section of the "stomach pain" trail.
