      Riding clockwise, the rocks at the top are easy for anyone who's been riding for six months. Slightly downhill, momentum carries you over everything

      I prefer to do this one clockwise, and it is a great quick loop with some techy spots. Excellent views of the city from the top. The rocks up top are a good challenge to clear.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
