The group camping trip went great! We set up Fri. nite and had a great salmon dinner. It was a comfy 67 degrees and all slept well by the fire. Woke to hot coffee,sausage,bacon,eggs,pancakes,then rode Bear Claw cw,River loop cw,where we picked wild blueberries,and quartz loop cw as well where we found a blackberry patch and ate and even brought some back some for the pancakes Sun. morn.We finished blasting down Thunder Rock Express, had lunch then headed a few miles down river and up to Chilhowee. Talk about rocks as well as every other terrain that can be encountered.Hiked to the cool waterfall then back on the bikes. Johnny and Norma headed down to Bear Creek/Pinhoti Sun morn. and Steve, Robi and I rode Tanasi again only in the opposite direction, all backwards except Thunder Rock that is. Going down T.R. is the best ten minutes of your life with your clothes on.We gathered maps and pics to use as models for Chicopee as this is one of the best trail systems we’ve ever seen.

Join us Saturday, July 26th for a Work Party! Meet us at the Chicopee MTB parking lot around 9am. Lunch and tools will be provided. We’ll also be raffling off some sweet SWAG!
We’ve got a big push to get the new Flying Squirrel trail completed so it can be signed off on by the DNR to complete the grant process. As soon as we get the Squirrel done we can start working on the new Zig Zag and get it opened up!
Please wear closed toe shoes, Hiking/work boots recommended, and bring work gloves and enough water and snacks for 4 hours of work. We’ll work til about 12:30 then eat lunch. Bring your bike, we may ride the stuff we work on afterwards.

Keep in mind that there is some major construction going on down around the pump house on the outer loop. This is not a trail project and can/will involve heavy machinery. Please be careful as you make your way down the gravel road section.
