A short, hand-built loop at the top of the Cricket Hill climb. Enjoy a fun mix of flow and light technical riding, including a beginner-friendly rock roll, before a mellow climb returns you to the start. A great way to add a little extra mileage to your ride—this loop takes about two minutes to complete.
