Tuesday night trailwork-new pix!

[dirtrider2]

We'll be heading out to Vietnam once again tomorrow night at 6:00. We meet at the top of the cell tower hill. Barring any unforseen trail disasters that would require our immediate attention, we'll be working on the switchback section that feeds into the jump line we recently finished. If you have any strong opinions on what should be done to the switches, we take requests in person! So come on down and lend a hand, we'll need as much help as we can get! We're always open to new ideas and we'll do our best to make them happen.

If you can't make 6:00, latecomers are always welcome. To find us, you can head to the top of the cell tower hill and you'll hear us on the new trail up to the left of where you're standing.

To anyone who plans on helping out, please bring gloves and plenty of water. If you have a metal garden rake or hoe, they would be helpful as well.

Here's some of the highlight's of the new trail. If you haven't ridden it yet, your missing out. It keeps getting better and better. It's at the top of Cell Tower hill, and flows best counter-clockwise. Enjoy. 8)

Nice pics Steve! Here's an update for everyone on our latest progress:

We're working on improving the flow of the switchback section. This is a big job and will require some time to complete. We've improved one of the switchback turns near the top and we had to close off a lower switchback temporarily while we put in a huge berm. Progress will be slow and there will be a lot of changes to the entire section, but I'm confident that when we're done it will be as fun as the jump line. (We have some fun surprises in mind... ;))

Speaking of big jobs, I just want to thank all of the people that have come out to help make this trail a success and I would especially like to thank our regulars (Donny 'the machine', Steve Barnes, Mike DeChristofaro, John Goeller, Dave Riding, and John Vosburg.) Some of these guys are an hour+ drive away and come out almost every week. If you see them on the trail, give them a pat on the back. They really kill themselves every week to make the trail the best it can be.
