Description

A super-fun trail, steep, lots of loamy corners, some off-camber and a few dusty chutes (but with great catch berms). Easier than 629 & Peaking Ridge, if you can ride Aorere you should be sweet with this one.Take it easy right at bottom, the trail drops into a fence you won't get your handlebars through (which I assume is to stop you riding out onto the road). New trail grade in 2021.
