      If you are from the Shore this will disappoint. It is like the start of Dales, all swampy roots no flow plateau. Dales at least points down and gets good. Classic Cumby to rate a descent trail but have mostly punchy ups and traverse.

      Only a double black if you count as climb, for technical riders this is a blue. A blue you can ride at night, in the rain on a hardtail. Also, one gap does make this a "double black".

      Just not shore quality and I question the builders vision on this one.

      Rooty downs and punchy ups. Beauty!
      Not a double black compared to gingersnaps, cupcake, knuckers and co. Don’t let them fool you.

      Really great trail except for the two momentum-killing hills that surprise you. Harder than your typical black for the area but in line with whistler blacks.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
