Rocks, Drops, and Rollers at McIntosh Run

McIntosh Run is a trail system in Halifax, Nova Scotia. It is built in a pretty open area with sparse vegetation and large ridges of exposed granite bedrock.
It was our first time mountain biking on these trails. They were very different from anything else we have tried. We tackled some tricky rollers with steep descents, rough rocks, and sharp transitions. Came pretty close to crashing once or twice... But it was a great ride!

You might find having a pair of proper cycling shoes makes a massive difference too.

Yes, it's something I keep saying I'm going to get, but then I never do. Maybe this year! Haha

[@sabatage13]

Yeah there used to be a trail that shot right out onto purcells cove rd but it isnt maintained and I would believe it is grown over

[@aplacetorambleon]

[@hucktrail202]
