Try Harder 5.6klm link trail gets you a good intermediate trail, with lots of regular features, downhills, open flowier sections and a few challenges here and there. It short cuts the 11klm Loop Trail, if you only have a shorter ride OR want to miss the slightly harder outer sections of the 11klm Loop (which has some quite challenging rocky sections and uphill climbs
Try Harder is also a 2-way trail, and is also used as a short cut back to the medical assistance WHEN there are races on at the Copeton trail. Just be aware there might be other riders in both directions
