Found 29er wheel still with the reflector on it. It was in the big lot. Turned into the clubhouse for safe keeping.
Very nice spendy Sunglasses, name/color and so on, and shot me a PM and I can get them back to you JR
Join us for trailwork this Wednesday. We'll tackle a couple quick maintenance projects and then move on to fun with rocks. Meet in the par three lot at five to gather tools, or find us later on the trail. We'll be spending the majority of our time working with rocks in the new section. Take the...
Hello all, this is from our friend Matt Moore over at MOCA: If you want MTB trails to live on near Brownie Lake in Minneapolis, you could take a few minutes and complete the survey. http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/FNNM7Y5 Planning is going on right now for this area, and if people (that’s...

While the design group is crawling around in the woods, there will also be a maintenance session for those who prefer to actually do something. With tools, even! :crazy2: The maintenance crew will be leaving from the par three lot at five, but you can find them later on the trail. They will...
The construction of section six is cruising along nicely, so nicely that we are devoting an entire "non-trailwork" day to pin flagging the remaining trail. Woo! Anyone interested is welcome (and no, dirt bosses don't have a choice :p) There will be zero cutting of trail during this session --...
We are constructing Section 6, our new advanced trail. We provide the tools. Please wear good clothes for trailwork (and heat), bring bug spray, sunscreen, plenty of water, and lots of energy. Meet at the Par 3 parking lot at 5pm. If you can't make it by 5, meet us on the trail.
Rock (and sometimes too much roll) building goodness! Who: You! Where: the par three lot When: five pm What: trailworking goodness Why: the faster we build, the sooner we get to ride (and 'cause it's fun!) We'll be leaving from the par three lot at five, but if you need to join us...
Anyone keep track of lap times? I guess specifically the North section. I just started riding there and am curious as to how fast others are doing it. I warmed up a lap then did a speedy lap then another at basically the same. It felt fast but some of the corners are really sandy and difficult to...
We are working on Section 6, our advanced loop. We are behind schedule due to so much rain this spring and summer. We need as many volunteers as we can get to help us get this project finished. Bring good trailwork clothes and shoes, bug spray, plenty of water, and a lot of energy. Meet at...
Heard they found a body. Anyone have more info??
We need as many volunteers as we can get. The weather has put us behind this season and so our plan is to play catch up. We are working on Section 6. For those who don't know, Section 6 is our advanced loop. Please bring plenty of water, good clothes for working on trail, bug spray, and a :). ...

My name is Chris L., and I am writing about my Boy Scout Eagle Project. A requirement of the rank of Eagle Scout, the highest rank in scouting, is the Eagle Project. In my project, I must plan, develop, and give leadership to others in a service project helpful to my community. The project ...

Weather permitting, we'll be having trailwork on Wednesday starting at 5pm in the par three parking lot. The specific project is dependent on conditions. We could be doing anything from boulder work to tread maintenance to boardwalk planning. In any case, please bring gloves, work boots, long...
.....said a rider with 2 of his friends after riding Theo while the gates were closed. Another amazing statement was this. He said he was upset because when a tree went down and he put in a log ride to go over it, we took it out. Then he said, you guys just take over the trails. On the "we...
I know this sucks..........but it was pretty saturated before the big rain we got this morning. When I went to close the gates this morning, there was a puddle 6 inches deep at the entrance. Also, there is forecast rain throughout the weekend and any showers we get will add to the drying time. When...

Meet at five pm in the par three lot for trailwork tomorrow (Wednesday, May 26 for those of you playing along at home.) Can’t make it right at five? No problem – stalk us on the trail! In deference to the lovely humid summer weather, we won’t be moving rocks this week. Well, not exclusively...
