    Just a few hours of your time and we could have a few miles!

    In past weeks and months Aaron, Ron, William and city staff have worked out and cleared the corridor for a few miles of single track at Pleasant View (aka Middleton Bike Park). Some of this is roughed in and ready. A good turnout Saturday means a few miles of neat terrain will be ready to ride. We hope to see you there.

    Niner bikes and Motorless Motion are helping with the day. Food and bike demos will follow the trail work.

    The trail work is rain or shine. So is the club house local beer. Please check the events here and say you’re going in order to help us plan.

    Thanks to everyone who came out and worked, and thanks to Niner for the pizza and demo rides.

    We got quite a bit done, though there is still alot to do.  There is single-track more or less to the end of the park, though  it gets pretty rough the further you go.  Some of this is cut through prairie, so it badly needs riders to keep the prairie from reclaiming it, which will happen in a matter of weeks this time of year.  So if you have a little bit of time and are looking for a short ride near town, give it a couple passes, and you can call it trail work!

    Planning to build and extend the single track tonight starting around 5pm.  Walk the current trail west until you find me.  Perfect night for working on trail.  Send me a PM if you plan to come and I will grab some extra tools.
