Description
This trail is so named for its constant switching from sharp, technical inclines to sharp,

technical declines. No matter witch way this trail is traveled, you will be in for a hard

workout or a lot of walking if you skills aren't up to par.

Review: A great trail in the Tijeras area. Definitely technical, but lots of fun for a short trail. The best way to ride it, in my opinion, is to start in the Cedro Peak area and connect through the Cedro Ridge trail and/or FR12 to the Crop Duster trail, which drops you onto the intersection of Gear Grinder and Bear Skat. Crop Duster (05628) is THE BEST trail at Cedro - fast, flowy and fun!

Similar Trail: Crop Duster, Coyote, Cedro Ridge

Review: This has been the toughest trail I have ever ridden. The constant switching from inclines to declines was frustrating and technically challenging. This has been the only time that I have every felt the need for a Specialized Command or similar type seat post. My technical abilities will have to improve dramatically before I try to tackle this trail again. It didn't help that I did this trail at the end of my run either.
