Bike Park Progress

Thanks to everyone that showed up to make the bike park build day such a success. We had about 40 people show up to help get this thing whipped into shape. We managed to get the pump track in place and burned in, two of the table tops formed and the second ramp for the big jumps built. Not to mention all of the fun we all had riding the park. Thanks so much to Lee McCormack, BMA, Yellow Designs, Hatrock Excavating and everyone that showed up!

It's on like Donkey Kong!

Man, when you get some many good dirty minds together good stuff happens! Lefthand Excavating represented in a big way, Doug the owner even flew in, in his helicopter!

Yellow Designs crew came out and shaped the big jumps for the Lyons Outdoor Games. They built the take offs on site.

Build/Ride day is this Saturday May 30th, bring your bike and your shovel. We will start at 9:00 am!
