The final single-track section on each loop is the Mardi Gras Trail, which features Mardi Gras beads and a downhill. Each loop passes RFID antennas to capture split times. The course is marked with red plastic plates bearing the Scorpion logo, red and black flagging tape, neon green arrows and ground markings. The parking area is on the course, allowing participants to set up a pit stop close to the route.
