Thanks! Recent SF Bay Area transplant and I was wondering how to get to the rock garden! Trying to get used to the rocky, exposed trails out here. More used to Demo/UCSC type trails in the Santa Cruz area.

[@ScoutsOut]

Cool, welcome to SLO!!. To get up there you need to take the Cerro San Luis fire road up to the stage on top. I would recommend trail forks as there is two ways to get down and one is pretty sketchy but its a lot of fun out there.

This rock garden downhill was epic!!!

[@ScoutsOut]

Thx man!!

[@TProStudioCreate]

That is a very fitting name for the trail. Looked like there was some serious arm pump going on there. Wicked video man. The ride looked like a good time

[@ScoutsOut]

Thanks man, we had a really good time!!

Is the travel a little too much that it takes some momentum when you climb? I’m wondering if I should get this or a Santa Cruz Hightower

[@ScoutsOut]

Gray Lamp in my opinion it’s a small loss in momentum and definitely worth the travel, I am however more interested in downhill than cross country but I think the bike climbs great

[@thicccboi4246]

I reckon when it comes to bikes with a little bit more than usual travel it’s better to have the travel and not need it than need the travel and not have it

Dope ride 🤙🏽
