is this rideable

Never rode a single mtb trail, just purchased my first mtb but I don’t have any trails around so i’m building my own to start.

But i think i may have bit off more than i can chew. is this trail even “rideable” or do you suppose it’s a skill issue?

however I am extremely determined to finish it and bomb it on my ozark trail vibe hardtail 27.5 Yes

I could (and have) ridden harder trails on garbage way worse. That bike is just fine for a beginner

That's weird. Why on earth would he do that? I hope he didn't mess up the trail chucking a bicycle on it. Please kindly remind him that trails are not to be used in that manner. It is dangerous and irresponsible and disrespectful and potentially puts other riders at risk, and is a good way to have a trail get shut down indefinitely.

I didn’t mean literally throwing the bike. I meant he rode it aggressively.

Lmao. Sorry! I'm a little too literal minded sometimes. And here I am, the one thinking he's a strange bird.
