Land OwnerCity of Grand Rapids
A fun downhill trail compacted with clay, built by WMMBA volunteers. Very short, but sweet if you have the stamina to climb up for a few laps.

I’d call it more of a black with the gap jumps you gotta be on your toes for. Seriously fun trail tho

Rode the Flow Trail today. It is an exciting ride, but I need to work on my skill before riding at any kind of decent speed. I am closer to a beginner on the skill level. It was nice that the trail is only a few miles from work.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
