Tried to ride this from the top of Pig Track, but it looks like it's been destroyed as part of recent logging work. The same with Soakhole. A shame, they were great tracks.

Trail Soakhole
The climb section should be marked as closed. It has been disrupted by quarrying and is unrideable for large sections.

An excellent fun G3 track with plenty of jumping chances. We rode this track as part of the Challenge network of tracks today

Rode the challenge block of trails today, all in good order and fun to ride. We did take the wrong turn where trails cross so deep idea to do it again
. Average G3 track ride.

Great track for those moving from a Grade 2. Can adjust your speed to suit. Lots of rollable jumps, enjoy!

Nice climb uphill, not many roots at all, just a steady climb up. Good for Grade 2 who want to try a Grade 3

The trails has really good flow, especially the smooth berms in the top section. Some of the corners in the lower section are pretty tight, but also large and well bermed. I just wish this trail was longer, it's over too quickly.

Overgrown, boring track. There are much better options alongside. Your arms will thank you.

What has happened?! Roots removed from the trail, now a smooth flow trail, likely a Grade 2 now! Such a shame!
