A section of three rocky descents with some nadgery corners that are some of the most technically challenging parts of the red-rated Monkey Trail. For even more of a challenge, there are some black-rated lines that you can see that run nearly parallel to these. Yikes!

Let the bike run, dithering can have consequences! Look much worse than they are as you approach (like most of these things)
