First time on Red route and at Dalby. Took my hardtail and found it "Interesting" on the rocky sections. Last 3/4 miles are a bit weird with a mix and seems undecided what route it is, but overall a good trail

My first time at Dalby this weekend - Some great descents and testing uphills the last 3 miles are a bit mish mash but in general a good testing ride for all levels.
