"Beginner" ride at Rendezvous 2023. There were probably 15 of us all told, ranging from TW200, 790, Tuareg 660, KLR650, little KTMs. T7. Just about everything.
I called it a 4 - realistically this route is probably mostly 3 but there were some very muddy sections that really upped the difficulty. This was an EXCELLENT route in an area I've never been before. Tons of fun riding through pristine trails -many of which had grass growing on them. So much nicer than the chewed up side-by-side trails near Calgary. Several sections on loamy forest floor that was an absolute blast to ride. Dropped the AT one time when I was getting over-tired and I panicked at some muck.
I was on the biggest bike on the ride too :)
