    The Chain less is really fun....it isn't a super steep start so you actually skateboard your bike to gain speed.... then it's a test of your skills and mental strength! there are some flat areas that you need to carry speed through but for the most part its speed control.

    you want to stay of the brakes so bad but some of the turns scare you cause they are blind due to bushes and trees, so you just touch them for a split second and as soon as you exit the corner your first thought is man i could have gone a little longer without the brakes.

    then the next corner you do stay off them a little longer and you end up out in the bushes trying to get back on line.

    for me it kept repeating itself all the way down til i blew the last tight hairpin and flew over the bars!

    How soon will this fill up? I am very interested and I may be taking a family trip to Bandon around that time of the year so maybe I could tie this in (only a three hour drive each way lol).
