Overview

Aside from shuttling, this seems to be the fastest way to get to the top of Ridgeline (other than climbing Ridgeline, which I would not recommend). A sub 60-min ride, only 4.9 miles and a 680 ft elevation gain.

Description

A great, quick-hitting loop to showcase the Ridgeline downhill.

Rode a little over 7 miles before hitting the final descent, definitely worth it.
