A mix of every kind of trail you can think of, rolled into one great ride.

Adaptive Bike Info
aMTB Black Rating: Advanced obstacles exist, some trail obstructions.

This is an adventure on an adaptive mountain bike. We took 2 bombers and did a lot of spotting for them on off cambered spots, rock crawls etc. Doable for a lower level spinal cord injury if you have good spotting, excellent line selection, great endurance and even better attitude. No points in the trail where you must get out of the bike or the bike is too wide.
