D5 - Check Yer Shorts

This route is no joke. It's not the hardest D5, in fact it is on the low end, but there are a lot of D5 climbs, most relatively short, but also generally littered with roots or rocks. Also noteworthy is that once you are into the thick of this trail, there are very few escape routes and going back may be equally challenging.

This is a great ride on a 300 2T, a bit of a beast on a 450/500, and likely a bloody handful on an adventure bike. Doable, sure, but you will need both lot of skill, and good stamina.
