Got out tonight after work and removed the table top. Filled in the hole and tried to level things out so you should be riding on the original tread....have fun and let me know if you see anything else.

I got a lap in last night. Had to hold up at the 1 mile mark by some guy on a pos Yamaha dirtbike. He looked really suprised to see me and was apologetic but still . . .
Also, the kids on BMX's were out there, but this time they left the trail in tact and built some jumps on either side. Not too bad of an execution I must say . . .

did a couple laps this morning and except for a few trees down ( I managed to drag them off the trail) and some small branches, the trail was nice. There is a tree back at the off camber switch backs after the floating bridge that was partially blocking the trail. I didn't have my saw so I took a limb and pushed it up so you can get under it. The second lap I forgot it was there and you can't see it.

Thanks Ibisman, rode tonight and trail was in great shape as it has been. Hick has been busier this year than I've ever seen it.

Did a couple more laps before heading over to the "tree farm". Commerce is free and clear.

Small tree down about two miles in. Covers the trail in two spots. Other than that it's in good shape.
Saw some knuckleheads riding motorcycles out there - called the sheriff's office, but I doubt they did anything.
