Wednesday 7-11 Trail Work @ 5pm

Meet @ the Weisers' house and then we'll go from there.

We'll carpool from there to a couple entry points and do some much needed trimming on some sweet singletrack.

Tools that may come in handy will include power trimmers, loppers, pruners, saws, rakes, leather gloves and beer.
Hope to see ya there!

Afterwards all are welcome to grill and chill back at Das Berg Haus--bring combustibles for the grill or whatever if you like.

It's very "grassy" up there. I would be willing to bring our stihl cutter bar, but i'm not sure i am able to handle it. I will be there!

hey, guys, why don't you meet at our house and then we can carpool to a couple spots for easier access to the trails--going in off ridge road will allow to possibly split up crews and hit stuff faster? like donna said, someone can use our stihl trimmer. i'd like to walk along but the most i'll be able to do is carry the little gas can.

The Wiser Weiser said...

If that! Oh and if you want to bring something to eat/drink to share for afterwards, we could fire up the grill or whatever...

zero said...

the heck with gas....brett can be the beer wench.

HOward said...

That would be awesome Brett, as long as you think noone will have trouble finding your house.
Go ahead, edit my post and add a fancy link or simple directions.

Good thinkin Zero!

brett said...

modded the post. hope to see some good peeps that night.

H said...

I planning on being there and I'll bring some extra tools.

Brett - you should only carry a camera and a beer.

Very briefly met The Wiser Weiser while out riding on Saturday and would be willing to come help, but can't be up closer to 6:00. Also, I have a tacoma to throw stuff in the back of and have no problem running it on Ridge

It would be great if someone could bring a weed whacker with a standard trimmer head. That would work better than the cutter bars for the grassy sections.

brett said...

I will either wait for the 6:00 crew or circle back to pick them up after helping Howard get everyone started. So, if someone can't make it until 6:00, I will be there to get you guys where you need to go!

HOward said...

Thanks Brett!

zero said...

i'll bring the "offical" TORC combi- unit with both the string trimmer and cutter bar attachments, clippers, rake(s),folding hand saw, and NUTS. anything else? will try to make 5:00. any plan of attack made yet?

HOward said...

I think Brett has something in mind. It sounds like we should have enough troops and weaponry to orginize multiple assaults from different angles.

brett said...

Yep--pretty much. Easier to explain when everyone's at the house. We will be going in from at least two points, maybe three, to speed things along.

Jeremy said...

Still happening?

HOward said...

Yep. It's still on!

HOward said...

Thanks to everyone who came out and worked hard to keep some prime trails in tip top shape!

Jeremy said...

It was nice to meet those of you I haven't met before. Looking forward to riding with you all again.
