Fun, lots of flow, roots, dirt, some narrow spots between trees - very fun trail to ride. I preferred it counter clockwise, though the big hill 60% of the way in is tough. CW is easier but not as much fun.

      The North side going west from the parking lot is one of my favorite flow sections at Bacon Ridge. The South side going East is a bit of a leg burner but the Northern Flow is well worth it.
