Slightly more politically correct name than its strava segment Pedally at the start, then enter a very slippery section and end with a fast flowy section.

This trail is unsanctioned.

Disclaimer

Not to be confused with the official trails! This is an unsanctioned DH trail and is considerably more challenging than the black trail centre loop, even when dry.
