AVID Loop is a small, green-rated machine-built loop designed to be fun in both directions — smooth berms, rollers, and optional small jumps in a tight, approachable package. Built by AVID Trails in a small hardwood forested area between rows of houses, the loop has several fun optional technical features, making it a choose-your-own-difficulty experience with no mandatory obstacles. Optional features are small and well-shaped with clear bypass lines. Best for families, newer riders, and anyone looking for a low-pressure warm-up or cool-down loop. This trail has several access points from the surrounding roads (South Rosebank Drive, Boulder Point Drive, Logbridge Road) and connects at the bottom to the Dad Bod / unSTANKtioned / Participation Trophy / Dad Bod Re-Ride intersection. It also directs riders toward Tee Off with Tiger via South Rosebank Drive to continue the western loop. Note: Stay off the pipeline. It is not a trail feature and is high enough that falls will result in injuries.
