Overview

This clockwise loop makes for a good preview of the trails Dirksen has to offer. Sticking to the center of the area, this loop makes it easy to not get turned around for first timers while featuring a few good climbs rolling end to the end.

Description

Head out on this loop for Dirksen's finest representation of quick descents with immediate, punchy climbs. Expect to come in under an hour for this quick, fall route connecting Kevlar, Spine, Rapido El Grande Connector, and Alternate Kevlar.
