Description

Official Trail Condition Updates are found at the Minnesota Off Road Cyclistswebsite.

Everyone comes out of this loop with a big smile on their face. The climbs are deceptively easy and the downhills are a blast. Hang on and lean into the turns. Get some air on the rollers and jumps.

Connect to the SW Wirth section to the south across Glenwood Avenue for another 1.9 miles of amazing flow trail.
