      The Jerry Garcia of Penwood. Very much an XC style twisty single track. Not technical, fast, or steep. Good part is NB takes you to the unsanctioned gnar at the north of the blue blaze hiking trail. SB is best tackled in the saddle unless your hunting KOM.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
