Join us @ 9am for some needed trailwork. Food, Niner and Specialized demo bikes and trailwork. Throw in some good weather and it'll be a day to remember.

"This work day is being sponsored by the Pedal and Spoke bike shop.  They will be feeding the crew after the work day and they will have a Niner and Specialized demo bike day in the afternoon.  Even if you can’t make the work day stop by to take a spin on a sweet new ride."

I've never regretted a ride I've done but I regret each and every one I've missed.

I've never been to a SWK work day (lots of Palos work days).  This may have to be my first.

I'll be there for my first workday. Will not be able to stay past 2pm though, have to go do trail setup for a hare scramble race on sunday. Do we need to bring any tools to help out or does camber have enough.

We should have enough tools. If you want to bring a tool (note that you're on your own if it breaks...) a pulaski would be a good one this time around. We'll try to dig out small plants alongside the trail, instead of trim them and have them grow back. Course, any tree branches growing within arms length of the trail will still need trimming.

See you at the 2nd lot @ 9am. Get there early and we'll try to get a first wave out by 9. I expect we won't work past 12 so we can get to the food and demo bikes.

I have to go to a superawesome cinco de mayo party at my father-in-lawz house. So I don't think I'll be able to make this one.

The weather just might work out for us! See you @ 9am Saturday. If you're late, look for us along Wildcat.

Thanks to the guys who came out! We blasted thru Wildcat, which should keep it from crowding riders for a good while. And thanks to Pedal & Spoke for the brats & bikes. The Epic I rode was far more precise than my old ride, though a Stumpy might be a little more in my range for characteristics.

Good times.
