Mountain Biking Old Flume Trail / South Yuba Trail

This for advanced riders. Sweet singletrack with about a mile of very dire hike for about a mile in the middle. the middle could be cleaned if a mistake did not lead to fall to river below. I have 500 miles down Downivlle downhill and this one had me sweating in a couple of places.
