Bro Down was originally built in 2007 and rebuilt in spring 2021 by Ride BC. Hand work and machine time were funded through the Pamplemousse Pale Ale collaboration with Howe Sound Brewing as well as through Corsa Cycles. This short trail features lots of fun corners as well as some intermediate jumps to progress your skills. To support more builds like this you can pick up a 6 pack of Pamplemousse Pale Ale at Howe Sound and shop at Corsa Cycles Smile .

This trail has several intersections with neighbouring trails. Please be aware of other riders at these crossings and check your blind spots. Thanks and enjoy
