Squirrel Cage	Dec 5, 2024 @ 4:41pm Dec 5, 2024	Trail is all good to ride. I rode then Sullivan all the way to the top and no worker was complaining to me that I was riding.
Sullivan Canyon	Nov 30, 2024 @ 1:07pm Nov 30, 2024	rumor has it that its buttery smooth, super fast and perfect for a gravel bike. However, you would only want to ride it on a holiday when the crews aren't working. Still closed. Plus, from what I hear, there is still lots of work to be done. It's not opening anytime soon
Scorpion	Nov 29, 2024 @ 9:10am Nov 29, 2024	Ruts still there but overgrowth is mostly cleared. Super fun
Sullivan Ridge	Nov 2, 2024 @ 8:46am Nov 2, 2024
Jedi Jumps	Oct 30, 2024 @ 4:01pm Oct 30, 2024	DOWNHILL ONLY!!!
