Forget the footie, get trail building

2014_Dalby_June_rakeWe weren’t expecting a huge turnout for the June dig day at Dalby when we realised that the first England game of the world cup would be shown late the night before.

So it was no surprise that there were only 6 volunteers. Mind you I’m sure it can’t all be blamed on the World Cup it is the summer after all and folks might also want to ride their bikes. But that didn’t stop us getting stuck in to Section 1.

It was quite surprising how much organic crud had built up on the trail and how far the line had started to drift down the slope. But after a good bit of graft there is now a much more defined climb up through the trees and hopefully any rain will now shed off the trail stopping it getting too muddy.

We also manage to redefine the 1st step on section 2 and hopefully block up all the little bypassing runs. What can we say either ride the steps or get off and walk, its a Red trail!

Whinge over, enjoy the trails.
