    Tips

    It's basically undoable going up and can only be done downhill on gravel bikes if it's been dry for quite a few days. When it's wet it's undoable on a gravel bike, unless you really want to have some close calls. My tip is, just avoid it at all costs.
      beware for the mini drops by the tree roots, keep pedals flat , there are about 6 or so of these drops. Keep bike in low gear at bottom for root climb. No issues with MTBs

        Fun sustained section of off-road. Moderately technical depending on the position of the ruts created by motorized traffic - however it can be ridden by gravel bike. NB. This is a Byway Open to All Traffic (BOAT) including motorized vehicles. There is the possibility of pedal strike in sections due to the ruts created by 4x4s.
