For a quick taste of the Mountain trails, you can ride this in either direction, but its most fun riding counter-clockwise so the descent down is speedy and quick, but beware a blind corner when speeding down, there is a ditch off to the right. There are some rollers through the ditch. This trail is well suited to beginners to learn some additional skills.
