“The shorter of two routes for Ramsey's Revenge is a great mix of climbs and descents with some quick tech sections. ”

Overview

The race is an awesome mix of double and singletrack, featuring a bit of everything: longer flowy descents, long climbs, quick drops and inclines, stream crossings, and rocky downhills.

Description

The course starts out on a doubletrack descent to the Smith Bridge to Ramsay Road Trail before heading to the western portion of the Rocky Run trail. At the bottom of that descent, you meet up with the Rocky Run Picnic Table Connector before climbing back up a pretty intense and steep singletrack section (this strava section is called the "Lung Buster," so there's that). After that pretty tough climb, you have a relatively easy path down to the finish line.
