This workday had been originally scheduled for 4/17 however it has been moved to 4/18 so that our trail voleenters can attend the IMBA trail building class hosted by the Matthiessen club ( http://www.bikeiv.org/imba_trail_care_day.html ) Details for the 4/18 workday will be posted as soon as we have CCFPD approval. |

This morning Steve and myself walked and marked the "Grass Hill trail".
Sunday morning we will be meeting at Pulaski Woods at 8:45 to start cutting the new trail.
Terrain is super fun, good side slope, lots of ups and downs and natural little features.
Let's get a big turn out so we can also do some sightline clearing on the connector out of the staging area.
Bring a bike for some good riding for after workday and lunch.

WoooHoooo I should be able to get out for this one.
Oooops, nevermind. I'll be at SWK working with Dom on Sunday. Why am I always trying to be in 3 places at the same time every weekend?

If you are getting advice from me, I would strongly suggest you get a second opinion.

I was wondering the same. I'll be pre-riding, hopefully starting at 7 am.

Congrats on winning the certificate Marty, and thanks for the chicken, it was delicious. I think my lips are still tingling.

Sorry I couldn't make it to the workday yesterday. I did, however, get lucky and have a chance to make it out there late yesterday afternoon but was unsuccessful in trying to find the new trail.
