      Trail is closed as are most trails with jumps. From locals due to lawsuit from someone injured last year.

      Rode by and the trail is shut down. Not sure why but possibly because of multiple tourists being injured.

      Definitely not a 25 foot road gap. More like a 10 foot bike path gap.
