this is a great trail, you can get some great speed amazing downhill sections. hard up hill section need to be very fit. i did this trail with a hardtail bike, i would suggest dual suspension.

this is a great ride if you like quite extreme sort of stuff. try do it in the dry alot more fun

DO IT

Review:
This is incredibly technical, steep and scary. Ih has lightning fast downhill sections with sharp berms, huge obstacles and many drops (often up to 5/6 feet, completely out of the blue, eg. winding down a rocky hill and there's a big tree laid across the path. Blind, on the other side is a large drop.).

Not for the faint of heart.

This is the most exciting and challenging track i've ever done and the downhills are simply incredible. There's also some mint northshore along the track, which can be jumped if done at speed.

I'd definitely recommend it, but it is for good riders only (who are physically fit too)!
