Nine Mile River - Meeting!

Saw this posted at the NMR trail head. Not sure who organized it.

Meeting: Monday Nov 6th. 7PM at the Community Centre.

I haven’t even tried to ride this trail over the summer due to the condition of the bridges. Hope to see some folks from the MTB community there!

Lots of mud holes And wooden bridges needs to be repaired or maintained.
Overall, really need a serious makeover.

I wonder if this is @JonnyFever 's work. He posted a thread earlier this year about doing sometrail work there.

Is it in HRM?

It isn’t? Huh, I thought Enfield and Elmsdale were still located within HRM.

They are. But Nine Mile is north of Enfield, which is right on the line.

Going to try to make this. There was mention in another thread back in August of wood being ordered for bridge repairs then nothing… was curious what was going on.

@JonnyFever - did you ever get in there to do any work in there this summer? I did take a day and try to do some drainage work. I meant to get back to do a bit more, but too many other things and other trail builds going on.

That HRM/Hants County line has caused me some grief as well… the Cob is in Enfield, 95% of which is in Hants but that little section where the Cob is, is in HRM… tried to get funding from the East Hants Municipality but you can guess the answer I got.

Interesting. Is the land sanctioned? Could a usage agreement be struck?

Just found out I can’t make this meeting. Is anyone here going?

Hoping to, but still unsure at this point.
