Description

From the Alpha Trail riders pass under a wooden gantry and make a winding gentle climb to the Proving Grounds Expert Descent. The trail's steep descent is made even more challenging by loose, sandy soil. At the bottom, those with momentum can ride a berm curving to the right and then continue to the right to re-enter Alpha Trail.
