Rocky HIll Work Day – 3/4/23
By Ridenfool | austinmountainbiking.com
Looking for some help to finish a new 0.5 mile section with the corridor already cut. Raking, lopping, and cutting down stumps to prepare the trail tread.
Another section flagged today needs initial corridor cutting and maybe a little bench cutting if we get that far into it.
Here’s the good news. Everybody who volunteers and puts in at least 2 hours will receive a voucher for free RHR Day Use on your next visit. And, free riding on the workday.
Also, if you are a serial volunteer, TMBRA’s Pay Dirt program is open to all volunteers who work the required hours who can then net some nice prizes. If you are a racer you also get points applied to your race series score.

Still going strong and I hope that when I’m 86, I’m still out riding my bike with a smile on my face just like Dale.
