ECMTB Weekly - Trail Build?! at MRWA - 19 Jun 2018

This week is not a ride.

I know… I know… its prime time and all… but we need to pitch in on some trail work. It can’t be all play.

So put on your getting dirty clothes and come on out to Fight trail and help us work on some trail.

This is an ECMTB banner event so let’s have a great turn out and get some work done.

Where: Fight Trail, Alabaster Way cul-de-sac entrance
When: Tuesday, June 19/18 at 7pm
Difficulty: Soooo easy, its good for the soul!!

Notes: bring bug spray, gloves, dress for grubbing and rock work.

  • Going, see you there!
  • Wish I could, maybe next time.
  • Maybe, I’ll let you know.

The fine folks at MRWA approached us to see if we wanted to put our ECMTB stamp on some of the excellent work they’ve been doing at Fight Trail, and we thought it was a great idea.

This event is open to everyone, and you don’t need any previous trail building experience or tools. But if you have some tools then bring them…better to have too many than not enough.

We’ll be working on the small loop where Osprey meets the Attic. If you arrive late, here’s a map of the area we will be working on, just meet us on that loop.

Many hands make light work.
The official trail name is
Schnitzel and it is located at the end of the osprey trail. First thing to tackle will be the wet / soft sections on the lower half of the trail.

There’s also that pesky downed tree with @adventurer’s name on it. I’ll be sure to bring my saw.

I heard that @jetter
Let’s get revenge on that tree!

I never sausage a trail!

Don’t think I’ll make it to this build. I have something else going on Tuesday.

On the Rock, or I would.

Note there is also a Giant demo happening at Fight at the same time. The cul de sac should be quite busy so you may need to park down the street somewhere.

Also heads up walking on the trails to and from the build. Folks will be riding ‘em like they stole ‘em.

Lesson is: ride to the build location. :wink:

Regrets, I can’t make it to the build or the demo!

I was hoping to make it out tonight, but the baby (future trail digger) decided he wants to make his way into the world today. Have fun!
