      Seeing as how my comment on Gale Stone's work report was removed, maybe I'll try it again here...
      As was said, good to see everyone's favourite you-tuber putting in the hours on the trails "they" earn a living off. 'Bout time.

      Fairly mellow trail with a decent bit of pedalling required - could be fun on a short travel bike but would probably recommend another of the trails from the top. The end also seems like it is fairly regularly overgrown

      Not really worth it for the climb up in my opinion.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
