New Bridge For The Plank Road

New Bridge For The Plank Road

Note To ALL Club Members

When riding the County trails please ride offset (not straight down the center) so we are not making ruts in the trail. Also when you are riding all of our trails please yield to pedestrians, horseback riders, hikers, and bicyclists on the trail. This means at least stopping for horses and slowing down for people. Also, when you are getting close to houses please slow down as a common courtesy to reduce dust. It is also illegal to ride down either State Routes 370 (in Cato) and 104A (in Fair Haven). We only have permission to cross these main routes. If you are caught, you WILL be ticketed and it will reflect poorly on the club. We need to do all this so we can keep people happy so we are allowed to continue sharing the trails in the near future.

Work Detail 8/14 8am

We will be having a work detail this Saturday at 8am. We will be working on the Hubbard trail and will meet on the righthand side of Oswego street in Hannibal where the trail crosses the road. There is plenty of place to park there, as they have been dumping a lot of fill in that area. Bring you machines so you can ride to places on the trail that we are going to fill in with stone and gravel. Also bring a shovel or rake if you have one. We have some but might not have enough if we get a decent turn out. All that are available to help would be great. The more help we have the easier and the faster we can get things done. Any further questions contact Jermey at 592-8626. Thanks and hope to see you there.

Minor trail maintenance such as this can be done by ANY member. Any further questions contact Jermey at 592-8626. Thanks and ride safely.
