JJ was the first to try this tricky section, which was much steeper than it looks here.

Naturally, I had to do it too:
This was a long bridge over a deep gorge that linked two
trails into what is now Comfortably Numb. Near this bridge
is the first, last, and only chance to get out of the woods
and back to civilization without riding the whole trail. We
weren't even halfway at this point. A few other groups of
people were on the trail that day, including the guys in
front of Jeff.
It was a long way down:
JJ riding the planks. The forest was thick and sometimes a bit dark.

Falling off the "trail" could hurt:
Sometimes all it takes is a little "mo" to get up the ramp.
Getting closer to civilization. The guys we met on the trail said we'd be getting close to the end when the golf course was visible. I was glad to see the golf course.

Another very steep section. I rode down this with my ass pretty much rubbing the back tire.

Roots and rocks - always something to keep you on your toes.
