      This trail is a hidden gem. Much Respect to the trail builder, this trail is so well designed

      What a fun trail! Huge thank you to the guy (Dwight?) who created this. Several interesting features like woop-de-doos (is that a technical term?!) and small drops and berms and even a log to ride along.

      Very fun trail good for beginners. Took the family out there including people who don't ride much and kids as young as 9 and we all had a great time. Rode clockwise to hit all the bigger features consecutively. Dwight from the groveland trailheads was very responsive on Facebook with my questions and even met us on the trail. Can't wait to see what trails they come up with next !

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
