        Got yelled at by a grumpy biker for riding the wrong direction on the wrong day. I dunno but screw him.

        Weird trail, to be honest. The bottom section is flat and almost uphill but the beginning section has berms which seemingly go in the wrong direction. So it appears as a two way trail but doesn’t necessarily flow in either direction. A step in the right direction for the area but hopefully the other trails can be built steeper.

        Amazing! Has little jumps and berms! Flowy and awesome
