Hey Don, Dave here
It was nice working with you and everyone else here, it was a lot of hard work but it was worth the effort. I am glad to hear what we did is working out.
Hey Dave - good throwing dirt with you at the TM. That section we were working on looked good even after the rain :thumbs: Hope to see you on the trails or at the next TM.
I believe there is another one in May, I'll get back to you with details.
Thanks for the interest.

That makes sense, as any downhill trail at Hartshorne has them setup on the fall line and I can't think of one not blown out from it. I wonder if the people that love them so much actually walk the trail and observe how they hold up over time and what happens when the rain hits them
I love tech trail and all but prefer Nicks as well.
No Love for Clayton in there? :cry:

Sure you can. They just like to have a rough head count so they know class size and amount of tools they may need.

I really hope I can make it. I just hope I don't have to work an overnight on Friday (damn healthcare profession).
My basset is 7 yrs old. She is the coolest. Sorry to hear he passed. Def get another one, their great dogs, but of course their STUBBORN.

I'm looking forward to this, hopefully we get some good weather. It looks like possible rain in the forecast......

This class is primarily indoors, so rain will not effect the training. If its raining when you attend this class you won't feel like your missing out on riding...Bonus!

Well, i was hoping it would be more like on the job training, playing in the dirt
We run the class from 9:00am-12:00 noon,
from 9-1030 or so we are in the classroom, then if it isnt raining outside, we wil go out to demo the skills you learned in the classroom, we are not talking about building a new trial now, it is light trail work/demo..If it is raining the class will still happen unless otherwise notifed from Melissa, we just wont go outside to do trail stuff...Hope you can make it..see you tomorrow...
PS..stop over and introduce yourself, i am the oompa loompa in the grey MCPS t-shirt, blonde hair dooood...

On Saturday, May 14th, we had 15 volunteers attend the Trails Maintenance Workshop! Once again, our dedicated crew leaders instructed the new members on basic volunteer procedures, tools and equipment used on the trails, safety tips, and reviewed basic construction and maintenance techniques.
Can you spot the MTBNJ members who are now MCPS TM crew Members and yes "They Dig"!....
Please welcome the new team members!!
