By all means, lemme know. This is the most positive thing in trail development in San Diego county right now. I want to be part of it. So please..post up work days here, preferably a week or so in advance. |

Blah, it's all a trade off. SDMBA build one trail at black mountain and ok's trail closure at cala. Stoked for the locals down there none the less. |

SDMBA currently has no liason for Calavera. Step up and be the liason for Calavera if you want SDMBA to help out on those trails. SDMBA is entirely a volunteer organization. People do not get assigned to locations. They step up and choose to represent a location. Nobody who rides and loves Calavera has stepped up to be the liason. So of course Calavera gets under represented. Matt and Rod are crushing it at BM. They are role models for MTBers who love their trails and are willing to step up to be the instruments of change, and to take the resulting heat that the inevitable internet nay-sayers send their way. ![]() ![]() |

Besides, now I can ride to BM, via T-4! That's not too bad.... So most definitely post up work days here, as you know there is at least one DT'er who will turn up to swing a pulaski, shovel, etc. -edit: Fer instance, I could be there this Sat. or the next... |

There's a greater issue afoot there that isn't specific to the one area and engaging at the Sacramento level makes more sense to me. Until DMM quiets down though, it would be foolish to engage. Since I don't live in PQ anymore I'll be letting Matt take lead role at Black Mountain. Next BM CAC meeting will be my last. For sure I'll be heavily engaged but Balboa needs a liaison and that's my 'hood' now. Tell 'em Large Marge sent you! |

I am done with my Saturday soccer commitment this Saturday for a few weeks. Can someone show me around down there? Never been and would like to ride fun legal stuff. I'm pretty out of shape though, so you'd have to be patient. Book club maybe? And would be down for doing some work during the winter to take some ownership in keeping us able to ride somewhere in SD county legally... ![]() |

Building season is pretty much up in the air right now. Even with the rains, it is bone dry out there right now. All we are doing is flagging and keeping the ACE brush clearing crew on path. As I said before, the brush is crazy dense in places. It took 3 of us 2+ hours to flag only 1/3 mile of a trail. There is not a need for a lot of people just yet. Once it is wet enough it will be all hands on deck. We learned last year that east and west facing slope dry much faster than north facing. Unfortunately most of it is east and west facing. As far as riding, most of my rides are at sunrise since I don't have a lot of time in the evenings. Besides, while night riding is a blast, it won't do much to give you a feel of what it is you are riding. Now, if you want maps, I have plenty of those... |
