    I love this down hill.. it's not flashy nor does it have any obstacles on it. But it is on the dirt and early winter packed snow and as you can...

    Most outer trails overgrown to the point where they’re unrideable. Parts of Saugus River is ok but prepare to be very disappointed if you try Dump Run or Perimeter. Go to Lynn or Medford Fells if you’re looking for a better ride.
