Tips

Mountain biking

Take the left fork to avoid the massive gully and replace it with an easy ramp. It also doesn't get as techy as that initial section until later on

Took on "The Gap" from the north side which made this section a really fun long rocky ride down with wonderful views. Level pedals, weave around bigger rocks...fun times.

The proper start of the gap, where the gradient and difficulty shifts up a gear. Pretty rideable on a non-assist bike if you pick your line.
