A fantastic trail with numerous interesting natural features. Once ridden, it's a must to repeat. A loamy top section, then a fast dusty middle section (with numerous rolls over fallen trees, undulating ground, and flat turns), and lastly an often-dampish but fun bottom section. Can be sessioned by riding back up High St.
