Solid day on the trails working on Redback. If you haven't been, make it a priority to get there and ride. The trails are sooo fun. Couple of pictures from the day below. We spent the day breaking rocks, ripping roots out of the tread (bad for derailleurs) and bucket-brigading dirt to build up the tread. We put in 55 hours today which equates to about $2k worth of work across roughly 300ft of trail. Come out for the next one and help us make Sterling the premier riding destination in NY/NJ (and hopefully, one day, the Northeast).
