Good evening at moose rode toothless and Jean Guy.

Big thanks to Jerome for showing us around the trails and giving me some tips, first DH run in 10 years so I was pretty excited (and a bit sketchey!!!) Trails were way better then I ever imagined, you guys have put a lot of time and effort in and it shows. I will def be up there again and you can also count on me becoming a member and getting out for some trail building days.

Thanks Big Grin

Hey guys, just want to give a heads up to everyone around the city. Last night my car was stolen off the street in front of my house in Silver Springs. Its pretty recognizable, especially to mountain bikers so if you see it please call the cops. It is a Red 1998 Civic Cx hatch with a bike roof rack and a bunch of stickers that should be pretty recognizable. It has Pinkbike, MMBTS, Wipe-Out and x929 sticker on the back window as well as a bunch of other ski and bike related stickers on the side windows including Armada, Trek, Rocky Mountain, Salomon, Silver Star bike park and Wipe-Out. If you see it around please call the cops!
Thanks
Zach Cry

Me and my son will be heading up to Moose tomorrow to check out the trails... Neither of us have ridden Moose yet but were out for the first Trail Day to help out with Family Guy.

We will have a truck and able to help out with a run or 2..

Unfortunately Moose got 4 inches of fresh snow Wednesday evening and possibly a swack more last night. The snow line went to the bottom of all the trails and another day or two will be required to dry things out a little. Sunday is your best bet. The road is also a mud bog with all the fresh dirt from the recent ditching and grating. Sucks as I was planning on spending the day out there as well.

Well I finally got the tire on the truck replaced, want to thank Jerome, James, Nick and Luke for the help. The boys make a damn good pit crew. Can't wait to get out for the next ride. Has anyone heard when they plan on finishing the rest of the road?

was out there today, the road has dried up a little better but still take it slow.

T-dub is super mucky, and while i dont wanna be that guy, it might be worth staying off until it dries out more. the combo of unmelted snow and the rain/snow mix of the last few days has left sections pretty soupy and you can chew it up pretty quick with heavy braking and sticky tires.

jean guy is in amazing shape. the first corner they've been working on into the drop is gonna need to be packed down more, right now its too soft to carry speed for the drop that bypasses the chute. good work to the builders though to change the line through there, it was getting destroyed

Hi everyone,

Lost my Rottie, Tank, at the top of SHAFT tonight.

Super friendly dog wearing a red backpack and bear bell.

Please let me know if you see/hear of him.

Cheers,

Scott
