Summary:
Shockingly bad trail

Review:
Lack of berms from start to finish which basicly made the fast sections slow. A quite long boardwalk section that had nothing to interest me at all. 3 jumps and one small drop at the start of the trail and apart from that nothing. The trail took huge ammounts of finding as its quite a distance away from the trail center and there are very little signs pointing you in the right direction. I got the impression whoever designed this trail must be at least 40 years old loves xc riding with little in the way of a challange apart from keeping myself from going fast on any of the downhill sections because there are no berms! I like the old red and black graded trails but this is just a waste of time unless you want to do a lot of climbing with no reward
