Starting to look like a bike park! C'mon down Sunday 1-3 to see the progress, talk to the builders, and pound some dirt!

Just a reminder that Round Mountain is going to be invaded by an army of XC racers this Sunday May 5. If you're not racing it will be a good place to steer clear of to ride until late afternoon. Here's the course https://www.trailforks.com/route/round-mountain-racecourse/ It looks like we still need a few more volunteers, so if you can help out here is the sign up (and don't forget to pick a burrito for Sunday!) https://yboncfdn.doodle.com/poll/6a22hicmkscr8axe ...
