Bustamove is a new downhill bike traffic only trail. No downhill bike traffic on Poplar Ridge trail. Bustamove features berms, jumps and fun flowy downhill. Snappy in the top third, speeds up a bit in the middle before a flat pedal brings you into a long righthand berm before a stepdown into a step up that both require some speed to clear. A great volunteer effort brought this trail to life and it's a great first destination from your start at the Hurricane Road lot, or the reason for multiple laps.
