The name says it all. This trail was incredible. You start
out with a long swtich back "rolley rock" climb with bits of short down
hill and more climbing in between.
There there are tons of sections that wind in and around itself through
forested pine trees. There was a short wooden bridge that crossed
a little creek. The odd thing about it was there was this antique
stove right beside the entrance to the bridge. This was like dejavu....I
had seen this place before. But of course, this was on a back
cover of one of the mountain biking magazines I just saw a few days earlier!
Cool!
Anyway, we eventually made it to a clearing over looking a helipad.
Then it was a long loose sandy down hill (very steep!). We climbed
up amongst the high power lines and then came up to the most gnarly sections
of down hill I have seen. Some of this stuff was WAY over my head
and too insane to ride. I rode what I could and had a blast!
Now I know why this ride is called KILL ME THRILL ME! |
