Echidin' Me is a technical, rocky and gravelly descent around the outside of an old quarry. It starts with a very loose gravel section into a fast G-out followed by a long rockgarden then a big roll down and some off camber. Officially rated a Blue/Black it does have some tricky features that can catch you off guard.

A bit rutted up top, but it’s gravel so can’t expect much.

Lots of deep ruts at the start formed by water channels from the winter months

      Really hard blue run because it’s really technical. Lot of gravel and steep downhill with large boulders and drop offs.

      Great track just a bit lose more like a black

      Not quite consolidated yet so it’s hard to maintain speed. Should be a great technical track once it beds in though
