Ride Summary:
This is for skilled downhill riders only. Be careful and consider bringing your body armor.
Trail Description:
Don't let the length of this trail fool you. This is a town of about 1500 people and this trail is known as The Extreme for it's fast high speed banked turn and it's 40mph descent sending you fly over small bouders and deep groves. Theres even stairs in this bad boy - be ready!
The climb is worth the rush!
How to get there:
On Hwy 2 coming east as you get into Brighton you will see a beer store on your left turn here. Take this road to its end you have arrived. Now the trail is a bit hard to find. So go straight from where you parked your car to the
forest line and you know when you see it. Look for the small opening in the forest and the small hill at the beginning. Go down and turn right enjoy the ride!

I am not a skilled mountain bike rider
and hence I lack a depth of knowledge in
it. But I know one thing. Fitness and
passion are the most important things in
mountain bike riding. And also we should
know when and where to shift gears.
Otherwise it will end up in serious
disaster.http://www.dirtworld.com/trails

i ride downhill and this trail is pretty decent if you go down the hill you will notice a wooden bridge going accross the gorge not the creek go accross this and climb the hill then go down the other side its way more intense then the other ones but after you finish this one then you can continue down the other so you kind of get two downhill in one but be very arefull this other trail is very technical and rockey should not be attempted with any thing under 5 or 6 inch travel or a hard tail

I live in brighton and this trail is ok, My friend fell at the very last turn and almost cracked his head open on a rock. The same rock broke my front forks but the trails in presquile are much better. They are not downhill but they are fun.

I live in Birghton, and ride this trail almost everyday. It's not the best trail around but for little travel to get there its good(if you live around the area). Stairs are very fun but remember to wear bug spray!! .. also there is a pretty fun grass hill that isn't mentioned called Dead Mans Hill, which is fun and there are some jumps on it. If you live around the area, it's worth the ride.

Just a comment on Brightons population, Brighton is a town of over 4700 people.So don't let anything fool you.

I used to live in brighton and ride over 5 miles to get to this trail if you like fast downhill action and like rolling hills get your bike and ride the EXTREME!
