 Some features need TLC. The side trail, Split Decision, is also good, but needs some TLC. One downed tree with a jump over it, but no bypass.

 Getting a bit loose from lack of traffic but Dropkick lives! Two downed trees, the second is right by the exit to short cut

 Two trees down now. One in the middle. Anyone have an e-bike and a chainsaw?
