        Great ride. Fast and flowy describes it well, a couple semi-tough little spots but nothing crazy. Def need decent travel in your forks and more than a basic setup
        Sweetlew10
        Nice trail. Nothing crazy. Some good climbs and fast and flowy. All around great blue.

        We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
