“The coolest thing is that we spent a working weekend for volunteers last Sunday.

“It has very good trails, and a lot of jumps. It also has something for beginners, so anyone can really come here to do it,” Scarborough said.
“Make it the most versatile route. So you have berms, jumps and hips, and features like whale tails, which makes it the most interesting trail ride in the area,” Selleck said.
