      Sections of the double track contour the hillside beautifully offering fantastic views of the Sierra and Washal Valley. But those fantastically fun sections are punctuated by a straight, vertical steeply, descending and ascending a sharp loose rocky segments that drop straight down into steep valleys and straight back up. It would take a masochistic expert ebiker to traverse these sections. Really unridable even on e-bike by experienced mountain bikers.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
