🌊 Whaki G3

Just a little tidy-up here… go ride it, and you’ll see! 🚀 We cleared up all those little stumps that were pedal catchers! Yay! 🙌✂️


🌲 Dipper G3

Got the drains and blowing treatment, and we also noticed that the netting on the bridge had… moved 🧐. So we replaced it with a nice new rad carpet! 🎉 Looks great and should hold up for a while longer! 🏞️


🏆 Taura G3

Just a head nod here to the trail adopter who is a legend for keeping this trail in such terrific condition! 🙌👏


💦 The Wash G2

We held the “First Sunday Working Bee” last Sunday, on The Wash. 🐝 It was a really great turn-out, and the crew did incredible work—clearing up lines of sight, re-burying drainage pipes, digging drains, removing stumps, and just making this trail sooooo much better! 💪💛 Huge thanks to all those who came out for a dig and a shovel. Greatly appreciated, and love the #NoDigNoRide vibes! 🚴‍♂️❤️
