Mountain Biking

To update anyone that cares, only 1 tree remaining. The tree is on swamp loop prior to creek loop branch off if going counter clockwise. (Same location where Bob & Ryan cut out 2 leaning trees in that "curved dip".) Many thanks to person(s) who did previous work to remove other trees.

Also bridges on graveyard loop, 121 loop are in bad shape. They are broken and have been moved/washed out by rain runoff. Bob & I patched what we could, but they still need lots of work to be functional again.

And ticks are at an all time high out there. Make sure you check you undercarriage for passengers.

Eric, thank you for being willing to cut those trees out! We need more peeps like you on the trail! As far as the structures from the Dirty Dash 5k go, they are going to keep those for future events. Good thinking though. Again, if anyone cuts or has cut those trees out please post.

I will try to get out there this week with chainsaw to cut them (work schedule dependent). If anyone gets out there first- please let me know so I don't go hauling the saw for no reason ;)
> Also- any way we can get with the folks that put on that "Dirty Dash" race and see if they would leave the structures/lumber they put out there?? It would be great to use that for new bridges and needed repairs and it would save them work in having to come back out and disassemble. Any possibility they would donate that to the trails/club since we let them use the trails for race? Worth asking, I think.

The total distance of the laps will be reduced from 7... miles to approximately 5.5 miles. Check out the new map with eliminated sections in blue.

Be sure to check out the section "Points System" on our "About" page at CCORS.COM to see all details on bonus points and series podiums.
