Fast and flowy trail but tons of brake bumps! Too rough to be much fun downhill.

Trail Trail 41 (Lower)
Fun and flowing ride down the ridge through oaks with a couple of steep sections that can get a bit rutted. This is one of the most enjoyable sections of trail on Fort Ord. The top of the lower section has a bench and a great view. Normally ridden downhill but there are hikers especially in the later afternoon so keep your head up.
