This climb trail provides a mellow, easy pedal starting just to the right of the trail exits for Banzai Downhill and Sickter Gnar. Serving as a connector trail, it offers riders a comfortable link back up to the Basic Training skills area and connects directly into the main road climb for those heading further up the mountain.
