Dieselbikes is happy to release some
of our trail projects scheduled for 2008. Each trail maintenance
series is broken down into sections on this page. Just scroll down the
page to review projects for each of the locations listed. We suggest you check out this page
from time-to-time as we will continually update this page with the most
current information related to the local trail maintenance listed below.
As always we at Dieselbikes can only
complete these trail workdays with help from the local bike community.
Individuals such as you help us get the job done and we look forward meeting
new people as well as our dedicated trail team. Get out your picks,
sharpen your cutters and get ready for for a fun interesting year of trail
building!
Lynn Woods 2008 Trail
Maintenance Series:
Dieselbikes is proud to announce our
2008 Lynn Woods Trail Maintenance Series. The dates are set and all of our
proposed projects have been approved. We are going to start the season
off with a huge project involving cutting a new section of trail leading
down the back side of Bow Ridge near the power lines to the newly approved
El Sweeny Trail. Below is a brief outline of these upcoming trail
maintenance days.
Scheduled Trail Work Day: May 31st,
2008
The section highlighted in blue on the work map
below shows the general area of trail work.
A section of Ridge Run
Trail has become unappealing over the past few years. We have received
approval to repair and recondition the trail that should result in fixing a
number of it current unappealing problems. Much preparation will be
required before the pending trail day, but such re-condition will include
short re-routes, rock armoring, bench cutting and trail bordering. Our goal
is to make this trail more favorable to all park users by developing better
line of sight and add directional flow to the existing trail.
Scheduled Trail Work Day: September
14th, 2008
The section highlighted in blue on the work map
below shows the general area of trail work. Sections of Overlook Trail that
runs from marker D4-6 up to Overlook Crag have sever erosion and drainage
problems. This is an old section of trail with a number of rocks and
sand exposed. During heavy rain and wet seasons, much of the trail
acts as drainage for the surround area. We have received approval to
re-route a few of these eroded sections to more stable ground and allow this
original section to re-vegetate.
Scheduled Trail Work Day: October
12th, 2008
The section highlighted in blue on the work map
below shows the general area of trail work.
A section of trail that
connects Ridge Run & Ball Field Trail has become heavily eroded over the
years. This is a fun trail section and with a little bit of work we
can make it fun, flowy and appealing to all park users. We have
received approval for this repair and recondition that will include, rock
armoring, bench cutting and trail bordering.
Tompson St.
Reservation B & T's 2008
Trail Maintenance Series:
Dieselbikes is in the process of work
with land managers for the area that consist of Bruce & Tom's. We plan
on hosting a 2008 Trail Maintenance Program in conjunction with other local
trail advocacy groups. Once we have finalized these plans and obtain
approval from all parties, we will post all related information for each trail
event.
