    For those on the more advanced side of riding and hitting blacks and reds, I highly recommend roots maneuvers (2.5km red trail) and Escort (European enduro style natural black) definitely a harder one to find but we'll worth it. Some very good hidden gems at this place!

    AC DC into Watts Occurring has a perfect blend flow and tech features and if you want a full mission, Roots Manoeuvers is the one. I tend to like to warm up on Vicious Valley into Surfing Bird, just to get my eye in.

      Helmets are mandatory (at least a half lid) and other protection is recommended but not required by the park. I always get a bit carried away when I go, so I tend to take the full face and pads.

    My friend put this bike together for his son and before I knew it he was done ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L When the son came to put it together he was surprised to see it was already done. All he had to do was take the bike to get air and be on his way. My friend did not have any major problems putting this bike together; small issue was putting one of the brakes on straight; however when the son got home he was able to fix it. The bike rides well gears move correctly; good bike for the price. Wrote review after the son took the bike. Sorry.
