I always think of Siefeld when I hear Serenity, "SERENITY NOW!!!"

We're not talking about trail work here...
Serentiy has a sci-fi bent to it too.

Understood..............I prefer the name Jedi for that trail.

Nothing is set in stone yet. However, folks have been calling that trail Jedi for a long time. That fact carries a lot of weight, even if some folks don't care for the name.

Well I rode KK for the first time since Spring and it was great.  However we can't call Rocky Road Rocky Road as the rocks have disappeared into a mud hole.  Don't know what happened their but Mud Hole is a better name    This track is actually very rooty so how about a play on words and call it Root 66, as it's one of the main tracks to to get in and out of the park from the Sports Center.

Also River Run, is more Whiplash Alley at the moment.  That track is seriously over grown and is falling into disrepair since Spring.

Lol! I went there about 2 weeks ago and discovered that by chance basically. Needless to say I came out all red legged after that one! Fun stuff!

I like that name; from the few times I've ridden that trail, I usually remember there being more roots that rocks.

I'll second the motion for Jedi.  That the fact everyone calls the western river run Jedi is a good indication it fits.  Pucker Hill is the river on the north east side and the Lower River is on the south side.
