      New log feature on the trail. This trail is great for younger kids and new riders, it's fast and flows. The logs now require younger kids or inexperienced riders to get off their bikes to go over. Hope it doesn't become Logarhytmic #2.

      Fun trail, good beginner ride but satisfying to hit again and again. Recently cleared of all fallen trees.

      Great trail. Rode it for the first time.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
