Is this trail beginner friendly? Will cantilever brakes be good enough? Do I need any extra pads (elbow/knee pads, not brake pads), or are jeans fine? Should I bring a full-faced, moto-style helmet? Are there lots of rocks and steep hills? Are there restrooms near the trail? Sorry for all the questions. I think this is my second time going DHing

spookydave · 04-13-2007, 05:33 PM

well my truck will fix six to go up the hill. So it sounds like if it is just us driving we are at the max right now.

Let's hope the weather cooperates!

30% chance of showers through the night. 20-30 mph wind sunday with possible showers. Bring some warm gear.

Great ride!

Thanks Dave and Jason for driving.

Among the four of us, we only had one flat, and no one was hurt, which is always good.

The ride was relatively smooth with a few rocks thrown in here and there.

Those who couldn't make it, you missed so fun stuff. Weather was great; it was a little chilly at the top along with some wind, but the sun was shining the entire time.

We also ran into few locals from ridemonkey who offered to show us around the area on another trip.
