Mountain Bike
This is a tough ride. Definately for advanced riders. Lots of climbing and descending. The trail at either end is well used and really fun. Not too much technical riding, just fun singletrack. The middle third isn't used much and isn't maintained very well. Some sections have been pretty torn up by motos. It's fun to do the whole thing once a year. The rest of the time just use the north and south ends as out and back rides or connect to other trails to make loops. Courtesy of Singletracks.com
