    buddy of mine wants to take me to the luge trail and was giggling while he said it (I'm a pretty new rider)

    Just curious what I can expect from the luge? I've been riding mostly aliso, doing cholla/rockit/dripping cave
    some mathis and meadows

    appreciate it :)

    thanks

    Never ridden it, but I thought it was still closed after the fires. There was a report on it here a few weeks ago and it looked pretty trashed from the fires and rain.

    Have you ridden down Lynx? If so it's similar but much longer.

    If you become a registered USFS volunteer and are working on the Luge or STT you can ride it too. :)
