Ride Summary: This ride starts out with a short climb. This is as close to true
DH riding Capitol Forest has to offer. Trail #30 is the steepest trail in Capitol
Forest, and dropping in from the towers it is probably the rockiest. Fast,
rough, technical. Big travel and a dual crown fork? Eat your heart out.
