Clay is the man with the plan for this. The city has plenty of dirt to provide and Adam Morse has a Bobcat and skills. <br />
<br />
Clay's hope is to have the first phase of the pump track done for the June Earthriders meeting. So come on out and enjoy pulled pork sandwiches provided by Biscari Brothers bike shop and warm up on the pump track before hitting the trails. <br />
<br />

You get the tallest mountain biker you know and put him on a ladder to put the signs back up. <br />
<br />
Thanks to Buzz Taylor we got the signs back up at SWW. You will need to look up a bit to see them, they are 9-10 feet up in the trees, but they should stay there. Unless the same D-bag wants to come out with a ladder. <br />
<br />
On another note, Liberty Parks is putting a disc golf course in at Stocksdale. This will have some effect on the trails, but not too much. They will cross the trail in 3-4 places. Generally the line of sight should minimize any chance of getting dinged by a disc. You will see some clearing of brush for this project. <br />

Note that I said trail sections. We have opted to go with a larger number of names for shorter sections of trail to help with identifying where you are on the trails. One reason for this is so that if a trail user notes an issue on the trail and contacts the trail managers we can be more specific. For instance, someone could email us and say, "Hey, I was out running today and found a tree down across the trail on the Buzz Kill section." That will allow us to narrow that down quickly to where we need to go do maintenance. These names probably won't make it to the map, as it would make the map too busy. The carsonite markers will remain on the map. <br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<br />
A series of rock step ups (or drop downs going the other way). These progress from just a few inches to about 22 inches in height. There are multiple lines. There are 3 distinct points of steps with each point having at least two different lines. Between the second and third point there is a 18 inch drop off of a ledge as well.<br />

The second project for the day was a simple skinny with low risk. 1' off the ground. 24 feet long. 8 inches wide. </div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Simple, straight forward skinny with a little risk involved.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After you clear the third rock step up you have a short recovery and then come to this. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The third project for the day was somewhat unplanned. After the bobcat work for the rock step ups, we were left with some big piles of dirt. We built a series of dirt rollers (think large rollers on a pump track). These occur just after the railroad ties. The dirt rollers are on about a 12' distance apart from one another (measured from the high point on the pile). They are of varying heights, but reach over two feet tall (close to 3 feet in some instances). </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The dirt rollers will undoubtedly need some refinement, we need to see how they ride and then adjust them, but should evolve into a fun feature. I was too tired to snap a photo.</div>

<b>On the current map you will note at marker #5 there is a longer option and a shorter option that rejoin at marker #6. </b><br />
<b><br /></b><br />
<b>Today we completed a project that removes the intersections at #5 and #6 (the markers have been removed). The short route is now incorporated into the main trail.</b><br />
<b><br /></b><br />
<b>This accomplished two goals, to lengthen the main trail and to remove the intersections. We also remove some trail that was eroding a bit. </b><br />

<br />Well, I finally have gotten around to getting a new map out. This map includes the completed new loop that was an out and back last riding season. Of course, we have been done with the loop for a while, but with an injury, work and other stuff I haven't gotten around to getting the new map posted. Thanks, as always, to Neale Shour for the map work. <div>
<br /></div><div>Note: The markers #17-21 have not been placed in the field, but we wanted to get the map done. The markers should be placed in September.</div><div>
<br /></div><div>Also, watch for the field loop to be improved. We have some new equipment that will allow a uniform spraying of the field that will give a nice wide trail to prevent rutting from grass roots.</div><div>

I have been slacking on keeping this up to date. </div><div>There has been a lot of trail work getting done this fall. The weather is good and we have had a lot of people stepping up and helping out. Most of the work has been on the out-n-back trail that we didn't finish last year due to the bad winter. Here are a few photos of some of the features on this section of trail. This trail is consistent with much of SWW, twisty singletrack with some technical features. The trail will have some longer stretches of open trail with more flow before it is finished.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLVQ3zyDvBkPMgDB3OhkEiaZUlvDzq-I644AaVFWpTqNc2gq3ceFeiexsEDppqvAL3Jyp1hdnaP4aOrsXAA0fTyhdisDtWYHO_puPRq8lgRyiLlI7a9CwvfbARgdbcesGo2ipbrWIW-OM/s1600/IMG_5524.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 260px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLVQ3zyDvBkPMgDB3OhkEiaZUlvDzq-I644AaVFWpTqNc2gq3ceFeiexsEDppqvAL3Jyp1hdnaP4aOrsXAA0fTyhdisDtWYHO_puPRq8lgRyiLlI7a9CwvfbARgdbcesGo2ipbrWIW-OM/s320/IMG_5524.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5542480645546912418" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">Elevated walkway over a soggy area.
