I was thinking this afternoon should be okay on the river road side loop. Red>White>Red> Blue
What do others think?

New segment on red by canal, that big tree won't be bothering anyone anymore! Just got done raking it

, I'll be back in a few days to finish it off better but it needs to be ridden in.

Thanks @jdog for laying it out and cutting it!

Is there anyone that meets the following to help trim the blue?:
Rides six mile often
Lives within a few miles
Is retired
Owns a Silky Saw

It is really tight by the metal bridge.

Anyways, dusty in the fields, magic where every there is foliage. The dirt on the white trail was awesome this morning.

Blue needs a haircut approaching the steel bridge. Best bet is a weed whacker with blade

Yeah, I use my silky as a machete. It 100% changed my TM work. Ride to wherever with silky in bib liner, trim for 20 min, keep riding. I trash blades this way as you inevitably hit some thicker stuff swinging it, but it is well worth the price of replacement. Also, can cut 8-10” logs with the 230mm ones.

Taking heavier equipment requires planning and getting it there.

This location is close to middlebush, so not a big deal, but for locations further in, perfect.

that will do it -
if you want to drive into 77 blackwells mills, and go around back - that is where the boardwalk is on blue.
could take a couple feet off each side. Just be nice if a cop shows up.

can park in the driveway at the south middlebush entrance too. maybe leave a note in the window on where you are,
and a phone number.

wear basic protection to look more pro. that always helps.

and Thanks!

Trimmed back from the bridge to the corner tonight. All I could suffer with this heat and its only getting worse.

Ps thunderstorms rolling in that way

Was out trimming on the Red from Middlebush past the concrete bridge this afternoon, very slick in the trees, big wet mud holes, dry where there is sun, I would not ride the trails given what I saw today
