Ok this was my 1st ever time down this trail and all I can say is OH MY GOSH! What a BLAST! 5 of us went for an MTB ride after a mens breakfast at chruch today, Saturday! AND all I can say is WOW! We are all VERY experienced riders and have ridden at Castaic many times. We had never done this trail so we decided to "Give It A Rip" and we all had grins ear to ear! I was leading and came to a section that was at the crest of a steep climb and just dropped steeply off the otherside! I had nothing to say or time to react except to say "Oh my gosh" and just decided to throw the Ellsworth right down that drop off! I thought the guy chasin me would follow but when he heard say oh my gosh he turned right & directed the other 3 following him right also!
You guys did an EXCELLENT JOB on that trail! THAT! is going to be my ONLY Castaic downhill for a LONG time!THANK YOU!
To those of you that know the trail well: Do you know the section with 3-4 fairly steep Whoops? Anyhow there is a manmade mountainbike park in South Carolina that was fully constructed with a small Bobcat tractor. The trails are loops anywhere from 4-8 miles each. They are constructed on the slopping terrain of the Savannah River! Since there is no elevation per-say they have been able to design the frails to do that Whoop-like design but with longer breaks! Well it always feels like one is going downhill! It is a trip!THANKS!
