Would be good but from what I know/heard about Cowles, foot traffic on the weekend is a lot so you might not enjoy the decent as much since you're pretty much on a watch for hikers. Its a fun ride though

I've ridden there a couple of times around 8:00am on the weekends and it's not SUPER bad if you use a bell, but there are definitely a bunch of people around. |

I've been wanting to try out a Nomad for a while. Might be a little small for me though. |
