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

      It took me forever to find this trail! Can someone please update the trail system maps at the park or some better signage. Awesome trail though!

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
