Skills loop located near the water tower at Sykes Park. A lot of fun packed into a small area. Downhill section with rock gardens, large bermed corners, an optional drop or two, and some smaller jumps. Challenging climb back to the start. Fun to session alone, or add mileage to the existing trails at Sykes Park. Party at the Moontower
