    Pump track:

    We may have more dirt and machine help moving it by Sat AM 6/9, and there's new dirt already. It's also dusty. Shall I arrange for the water truck or any city resources this weekend? This should be enough to get what's started usable.

    Right now a lot of the place could use some broom, water and shovel time.

    We also need to do more seeding where the city removed garlic mustard or poison ivy.

    I'll be on call but should be able to help for a few hours.

    Please considerate when we ask for the city resources because we loose political capital when we don't make good with favor received.

    Thank you.

    Water truck with both grass seed and wild mix seed in back will be at bike park this weekend. We need to plant more grass where we use weed whacker and the wild seeds in other areas. These tasks are very important to the city and golf course staff so please lend a hand.

    The water will be a big help for riding and fix up too.

    Add to the tasks: Move the oak branches and logs from the dirt jumps. Sort the ones good for TTF construction.

    Thanks again for all the help Saturday.

    This Tuesday we need to prepare for the IMBA TCC visit with polish to the work we did Sat, and trimming weeds.

    Make sure you bring a bike and ride the new pump track features.

    Thank you.

    This Tuesday's theme: Ride the new single track, keep tuning the new pump track, ride it.

    Hi,

    There will be a few of us tuning the pump track, blowing leaves and getting other work done this weekend.

    The rain has finally made it possible to fix up and tune up the dirt.

    I'll be there around 9 Sat AM.

    Thank you.

    Another weekend of making progress ahead.

    Water, dirt, wood, digging, building, and of course riding.

    Last official weekend of the club house open. Have a beer.

    I'll probably be there around 9 - 10 Saturday.

    I'm unavailable on Saturday, but I'll probably be at the park on Sunday to ride (and work if there's any to be done).

    With this rain I don't see a lot getting done other than wood work.

    With this rain I don't see a lot getting done other than wood work.

    The soft dirt was actually sort of good for the pump track. Allowed some re-shaping and packing that was needed and good to ride by Sunday.

    See ya then.

    Thanks.

    Yesterday was good with more pump track tuning and good progress with the wood work.
