May, 2009, Volunteer Trail Work updates

Ever wonder how the trail that you are riding on is so good? Volunteer work from our group, and day to day work by the Forest Service get most of the job done for the Willamette National Forest. There are a couple great photos below of what a few skilled sawyers can accomplish in an afternoon. Many other parts to the process including bench work and brushing take place every year to keep the trails open and maintain the great quality that we have. Interested in being part of this? The best way is to join our Yahoo! group from the link above. We'll have a few more work parties this spring and then its time to ride all summer! Cheers, Lou

All Comer's Meat IV -- 1/19/08

EVERYONE IS WELCOME, EVERY YEAR, EVERY TIME!

We'll meat in the T-bar-C Country Cafe parking lot at 9:45am, then caravan from there to the trailhead (drivers will be blindfolded so they won't later be able to reveal the exact whereabouts of Whypass). The T-bar-C Country Cafe is closed but the parking lot is still open so it makes a good place to meat. The cafe is on Territorial Hwy about 1/2 mile north of the town of Lorane.

All Comer's Meat is a FUN RIDE, not a race. The Whypass network consists of about 15 miles of homegrown singletrack, with plenty of climbing and descending and lots of mud. Bring fenders! Riders will be able to hook up with various ride groups offering paces from hammer pilot to stoner, so don't be concerned if you've recently added another layer of insulation to the ol' meat jacket. This event is about meating other riders, whoopin' & hollerin' through the forest and enjoying the mid-ride snack stop, where you'll even find BEVERAGE. I think you know what I'm talkin' about. In other words -- FUN. No puffing up & posturing allowed. Well, maybe some puffin'... I dunno. Anyway...

The '05 - '07 versions of ACM each drew 45-60 bozos & bozettes. So far nobody has failed to have fun. Any that do will be flogged mercilessly.

Directions from north or south: Take I-5, exit Creswell. Go west through downtown Creswell on Oregon Avenue (Oregon Ave. eventually becomes Ham Rd.) Continue on Ham Rd. until it T-bones into Territorial Rd., about 13-15 miles. Turn left (south) on Territorial and proceed another 3-5 miles to the T-bar-C Country Cafe which will be on your right, immediately past the entrance to King Estate Winery.

The green line from Creswell are the directions above. Be aware that Camas Swale/Ham Rd is narrow twisty and steep. You can get the turn-by-turn directions for the other route through Cottage Grove if you use MapQuest for directions from Creswell to Lorane.

Middle Fork National Recreation Trail Designation, June 2, 2007

That's right, Middle Fork is now at the same status as the McKenzie River Trail. Let's join in on the celebration and show up to do some work too. We're the ones that have kept this trail open for years, so let's make sure we go out and show them what we can do. Do you see the picture, it's a mountain biker, not a hiker or horse rider! This shows how persistent work and efforts by all riders to repect others on the trail and preserve the trail has paid off. Click on the image to download the brochure with directions and times. I'll be posting some chatter about what work we can do and meeting times on the Yahoo! group. Cheers, Lou

All Comers Meet 3, Cubed Meat!, has come and gone. Check out the photo thread.

Back to the usual. Biking and Trailwork is on the agenda!

Trailwork on Tire Mountain last weekend called for cutting out some old snags, and new blowdown from the winter. I'll have some photos online soon. Scott has the saw carrying bike all rigged up, so we were able to ride to our destination and get the job done.

Single Speeders, check this out.

Tim has made a chart detailing gear ratio's. Download the Excel file.

Fun at the trail complex! Whypass hosted ACM2 last month, seeya in 2007.
