You guys are in for a real treat this week. It's Dan's birthday, and we have something very special planned! As you may know,
@nj29er is not right in the head. So for his birthday Wildcat Wednesday, he and I cleared out an old section of the dark blue hiking trail that you've probably never seen before. I scoped it out on Friday for the first time since 2018, and it was horrifically overgrown. I was planning to clear this trail yesterday on my own as a birthday surprise for Dan, but fortunately I was too excited to tell him about it and couldn't keep it a secret. It was a lot more work than I thought, and I managed to trick Dan into doing most of it. We will also obviously hit Wild Blue and some other good stuff. Rumor has it that the pre-ride will feature Four Birds The Hard Way, which is one of the hardest "rideable" pieces of trail at Wildcat. Dan likes IPA's and chipwiches for after the ride, just an FYI in case you didn't know. This will probably be the second best Wildcat Wednesday of the summer, second only to my own birthday edition, which I'm sure will be even better.
