      This trail isn't worth the climb to get to. It would be if the dozen or so sections that have enough grade that you have to climb (not just a few pedal strokes to carry speed) to get to the next section of downhill were re graded so you could have flow the whole way. I've noticed this is a problem on A LOT OHV built trails. Easy not to think/ design to that if you have a motor. There are pretty good sections, but it's not worth the trouble.
