TDW tree clearing Sat. 2/23/13 at 9:00

There is a big tree down on the Blue at Leeve 1.....15-18 inch. I saw it yesterday while riding from the Yellow to connect to the white..

For the work we did on 2-23, we concentrated on the yellow trail since it is more used this time of year when the blue is wet and muddy. The tree on the blue will get taken care of in time.

Meanwhile, here are the pictures I sent to Shelby farms management showing MSTA's work. There are more than usual. There is a new operations manager at the park and I wanted to give him a good look at what off road cyclists do for the park.

We cleared the big tree that was down. Several limbs hanging low over the trail were cleared. The tree that has been leaning into the trail was cleared. An ankle biter was also removed from the trail.

Thanks for all the work you guys do to keep the trails in shape. It's stuff like this that makes even a cheapskate like me pull out his credit card and sign up for a membership.

Message from Larry Pickens, the new SFPC operations manager on the trail clean up.

Brad,

Great job! Thanks for your help and support.

Did Larry Pickens happen to mention how fat I look in the pictures? (embarrassing)

[Brad C]

No. That was the complete message.

Two things to remember.
Spring is coming which means more riding.
It's hell getting old! But the alternative isn't all that good either.
