NJ Mountain Bike Challenge Swag is on the way
Thanks to all the participants who stepped up to the challenge especially Jim Vreeland who completed every-single-one. And a special thanks to Mary Van Wart for managing all that swag.
High Bridge Flow Control Update
Avid Trails was back with the help of JORBA volunteers to tune in the trails. The top half of green trail is totally dialed. 80% of blue trail is revised and absolutely awesome. Check it out and let us know what you think.
They are not done yet but the big projects are taken care of and the blue steel line is running a lot smoother/safer.
High Bridge Flow Control Underway
Avid Trails and JORBA’s High Bridge Commons Chapter where out last weekend tuning the trails. While there is still more to be done, we’re sure you’re going to love the changes they’ve made.
