Land Owner
Petes has a long history and its character has changed a bit over the years. It is mostly flowy with some very modest jumps and berms in places, and retains most of this character. Since it became part of the QPWS approved trails the designated trail care body have made some changes, mainly to the lower part after the switchback near the fire road crossing. The formerly very mild jumps on this section have been made more aggressive and one has had a kicker added with a more defined gap. Watch out for it. Without the right line you'll go bush In the main though Petes has kept it's original character with some additions that many will love.

Very fast and very rough trail with a lot of rocks and roots, not for the rider who likes a smooth plush ride.
Not a lot of turns in the trail making it fast. Has about 8 nice small jumps.

Don’t worry it has two jumps so most likely someone will complain and the trail will be shut down!!!
