Sounds familiar. Is there a blue arrow on said drop followed by a mandatory left turn?
Wild Cat Wednesday!

- Start date
Yeah that's the one. When did you last ride it?
It's been a while. Probably before COVID, maybe significantly longer. I remember a nice techy intro, the drop-in (didn't do, but would, at least easy to say typing from a keyboard), followed by a couple of switchbacks on a VERY rocky descent.
Edit: May 9, 2020 (it started snowing!); drop-in below

Looks easy! You joining us Wednesday?
That's fine, but FYI we're only doing like 10 miles tonight, not counting the pre-ride.
No, we don't have the time to do that. I didn't realize you thought that was happening tonight when we were talking about it the other day. My plan is to go up orange to yellow, up to wild blue, stay on blue and cross the river, climb out the rail bed to the reservoir and go up splitrock rd, take blue to the old righter mine single track and go halfway down, turn left onto blue (the section that was recently cleared), down to the rail bed, down to meriden, and then take beach glen back. Pre-ride we're doing white the hard way out and back, but others can go up the normal way and meet us near the hawk watch and just come back down white the "easy" way with us.

Yeah, no bush whacking anymore though. I think the last time I rode it (other than this past weekend) was a Wildcat Wednesday back in 2018. Pretty sure it was your idea.
will it involve chipwich or some else crazy you want me to make
Erzberg to Ridge and back?
We definitely can't do that with the whole group, but we could maybe split up again.
Do I get a say?
As long as we hit the newly cleaned gnar, sure!
Let’s go
Unlikely, but I'm sure much fun will still be had.
We've brought a few others on this section of trail twice now, and while there were no tears, there was some blood and a lot of cursing. I can pretty much guarantee that if we hit this trail with 20 people tonight, there would be tears.
