Echols Dorm: Brick Wall By Side Door
George Washington National Forest
Come one, come all, to the shrediest of trails known to this side of the Mississippi!
Narrowback Mountain Loop!!
https://www.mtbproject.com/trail/3771756
Narrowback is 13 miles of unadulterated carnage brewed in the undulating belly of the George Washington National Forest, so gnar it will awaken your spleen’s third eye and show it things that will make it say “like whaaaa?”
The only question is are you ready for the dawn of a new spleen?
If your answer is yes, this is the trip you’ve been prepping for your entire life.
Plan:
Meet at Echols @ 8.30 and leave by 9AM putting us at the trailhead around 10.20
We will Shred until we have reached enlightenment… which turns out to take about 3 hours but I will plan for a healthy 4. This should get us back into town around 3.30-4
Please do NOT sign up unless you have a good amount of mountain biking experience (intermediate level and beyond) and are in decent shape. There will be several stops to collect the group and let everyone rest, and we will stop for lunch at some point too. If you are unsure, email me and we can figure it out.
Everyone will be waitlisted for this trip initially and depending on club bike availability and skill level, individuals will be taken off the waitlist accordingly.
What to Bring:
– Daypack
– Mountain Bike
– Helmet
– 3-4L of Water
– Lunch + Snacks
Club Provides:
– Bikes (if needed)
– Helmets (if needed)
Still mulling it over? email me gpt9ce
I will leave you with the wise words of a former shredmaster, Shreddy Roosevelt “To shred or not to shred… that is not a question. The answer is always to shred.”
Ride or die,
