Quick Weekend Recap and Trail Update

Had a decent six miler Friday at noon that began with a slightly sore back and lead legs. Ended up running through it and found my "all day pace". Thank goodness for muscle memory. Could have used some tunes though.

Saturday was spent hanging out with Eli as Ethan was ATVing with one of his buddies. Got a bunch done around the house and converted my old Diamond Back into a fendered off road commuter. Ended the day fishing with my boys and some friends followed by "The Day the Earth Stood Still"

Sunday was spent with our Luther League canoeing and playing volleyball. Absolutely great day. Our youth group really needs to do more activities like this. The way the day progressed, the dynamics, and interaction of the kids and adults played into something that I am pretty sure only God could scheme. Will post some neat pics.

As for Ingawanis, the majority of the North side is open and rideable. There is still some tree debris on lower Wakosha, but riders should be able to navigate. Huge thanks to Paul Meyermann! The South side is still open as well until hunting season. We will post up when that occurs in early October. North to South side bridge is still the works. Stay tuned for upcoming group rides as the best part of the mountain biking season is upon us.

Short Post

Had a great second run last night in the cooling rain and the best part is that my wife decided to join me for a bit. Very cool. Much easier to process the day and share thoughts while doing the same thing without distraction. Here is to hoping for more!

Mom, he's doing it again!

Blog resuscitation in order. Keeps me honest. Enough of the procrastination and hopefully enough health issues for awhile!

Ran a bit over 5 miles yesterday and didn't feel like it used to. Got a ways to go! All of the bikes are tuned, dusted and ready for action, stand by for posts!

Get your game on

Group Ride Sat AM at camp! May 23rd at 8!

NEW DATE

New race weekend date will be August 1st and 2nd. This was the only date that would fit into the IMBCS schedule and Camp Activity schedule and not interfere with other series races.

IMBCS #2 to be rescheduled

I spent some time assessing the trail system last night and again this morning, and we have some major flooding going on affecting a majority of the North side trails and South side trails. Even if it stayed dry until the weekend (which is unlikely with the forecast) it will be a muddy mess, and still have unpassable sections. We have re-routed in the past but am not fond of 3-4 mile loops when there is much more to offer. Out of concern for rider's travel time and expense, damage to bicycle's, and a substandard experience, I am planning on rescheduling the event. Stay tuned for NEW date in the works as we speak.

IMB Trail Work Day April 18th

Saturday April 18th is our first "official" trail work day. This is one of the most important to attend as our race is just around the corner! Show up at 8 with a rake and/or shovel at the IMB sign in Kiosk. We should be done around lunch time, unless you need to leave early.

I plan on being out a couple times before this, perhaps after work some day. I'll post it.
