Austin Ridge Riders and the motorcycle folks are building a NEW Trail on the the Motorcycle Trail at City Park. OK its actually an old trail we have permission to open up again. Most mountain bikers never used the old trail it is all new to us. We have marked and cleared the entire corridor so it is rideable now. We need to open up the tight spots and start working the tread.<\/p>\n

What we’ll do …<\/p>\n

This is dated but it’s the first I’ve heard of it. Many of you knew or knew of Fred Meredith, whose bicycle advocacy was broad and deep. He was one of the very first members of this forum back in 1993 when it started as a Critical Mass email list, and was one of its most prolific contributors. He was also an all-around great guy, I never hear anyone have a bad word for him. He will be sorely missed.<\/p>\n
