Running good right now, dirt is mostly grippy with some loose dry corners that are a little sketchy with marbles.

Lots of fun natural features to jump and drop off of, a few fun technical challenges, and the whole thing takes about an hour to do. I often do it in the morning before work or at lunch.

Loved this loop, provides all sorts of XC riding, lots of ups and downs. There was some good tech, most of the stuff intermediates can handle, if not all obstacles have ride-arounds, and some nice flowy descents (and a few areas that were a mix of the two).

We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
