WILL NOT BEGIN UNTIL AFTER THE SPRING CUP RACE
Sooo please check the Salem Hills/Harmon Park forum and lets all get over there and help get the trail ready for the race! I will be there on Tuesday 5/16 and Wednesday 5/17 to give James a hand. So I urge everyone to check for upcoming (really soon and unfortunately short notice) trailwork sessions at Salem/Harmon.

I know that trail workers are at a minimum and that there isn't a whole lot of time for things like this, but are there any plans to make terrace more technical in the appropriate secitons? I understand that terrace is more of a learning ground for new riders, but with all the traffic seen at leb (and the ensuing maintinace that comes with heavy use) it seem like there should be more than one place that is technical and feature-filled like the leb. I think Salem and the river bottoms fullfill the role of beginner ground quite nicely.

As of now Terrace will only be seeing a few more re-routes on unsustainable sections. The future may hold some more trail at some point, but it will not be anything like Lebanon, the trail will keep the flowing singletrack feel it has always had (possibly with crossed fingers no doubletrack!). Saying that, I also have plans to change up the "x" section, so expect some fun in there, but Lebanon it will not be. Not to ruin any hopes of another Lebanon, but I would prefer to have our trails to have unique feels and specific reasons for people to ride, variety makes it fun!
