Mr Toads Wild Ride

You will need to bike 3 miles in to get here from Big Meadow or Luther Pass, which means a fun ride down afterwards.
The Forest Service will provide a tool drop so no one will be expected to ride or hike up with tools.
We will be working on the existing rock sections to reduce erosion, tighten lines, and improve trail tread.

TAMBA has been doing incredible work on trails this year. Any local riding these trails has to appreciate the improvements and growing sense of community and progression in the mountain bike scene. I hope that any changes to Toad’s adds or at least maintains that level of technical challenge. It’s nice having one trail that is experts only (at least for a good chunk of it), and it needs to stay that way or get even more challenging on the lower sections. I would agree that coming down after the staircase there are a few rocky sections that are pretty erosion heavy, and a couple higher, but any changes hopefully keep the intensity or add even greater challenging options. I guess if I really want input I should show up. See you on the 24th.
