Notes:
This trail was a real surprise packet and not what I was expecting. Mad If You Don't starts across Red Tank Rd from the end of Be Rude Not To 2 and winds its way down to Waipa Mill Rd just around the corner from Planet Bike (a short ride to the carparks at Waipa or 8 Mile Gate).
Mad If You Don't has some really nice XC flow. Mostly on the descent it has a few pedally sections and a number of short climbs, the key on Mad If You Don't is to be smooth through the corners, but be warned it has its dangers.
There are a many a-line jumps, stumps, roots, ruts and small kickers along to the length of Mad If You Don't, getting a little off line on a corner may see you inadvertently launching off one of these features. In fact on the last day I came across a rider in a bad way who had been bucked off her bike by one of the small a-line features.
But don’t let me scare you off, because Mad If You Don't is a really fun descending XC trail and a great way to exit the forest after a big day on the trails.
