Donations And Almost Done


Through the generosity of several individual, Falls Area SingleTrack (FAST) is very close to our three-thousand dollar ($3,000.00) goal. This money will be used to purchase materials required to replace the bridge rendered unsafe due to a very heavy rain.

In this project, we are digging three loops for varying difficulty. To date, we have one (1) completed loop. In addition, we are close to having the other two (2) done. But, they are not. There are some fairly long sections done, but the end without connecting to another loop or back to themselves. Regardless, they are seeing heavy use.

Singletrack was so overdue in our neck of the woods, rollers have no problem doing the “hike-a-bike” to ride trail. They should be in mountain biker heaven once all loops are complete and linked together.

We’ll be digging today and tomorrow and in following days on a regular schedule. If my estimates are close, we should be done digging by October 1st. Of course we’ll have a celebration. And, I’ll get to sleep in a bit on weekends.


Ride On.
