Just a quick reminder that the North Loop is CLOSED for riding. The Trail still has some drying out to do. Riding it now can cause damage/ruts resulting in the trail taking longer to dry out later in the season from water being held in the ruts.
We have had a fair number of people in the shop saying that they have been riding the trail. Please don’t!! If you know of other who are riding the north loop please pass this message along. With the nice weather this week hopefully it wont’ be long now.
The River Bluff Trail aka Plum Creek is open for riding at this time.
There is also a new park open for mountain biking this year:
Wright County Parks in Central Minnesota has opened Stanley Eddy Park to mountain biking. These are gorgeous trails, all wooded, with many steep hills. Trails are open from May 15 to November 15.

Well it looks like we finally got summer in Minnesota. Go Figure we would get it in the middle of September. I don’t know about you but I’m ready for some nice cool Mountain biking weather. However, the warmer weather has definitely kept us nice and busy lately here in the shop.
Just wanted to touch on a couple of events coming up.
September 26th and 27th is Race weekend in St. Cloud
Saturday is the Revolution Single Track Escape at the north loop. - This is the final race for the MNSCS series and is great family fun. Even if you are not racing it is still great family fun watching some of the best riders in the state. There will even be pizza from the House of Pizza
Sunday is the 8th annual Pork Chop Challenge at River Side park. - The pork chop is a Cross race that weaves back and forth through the park. Since the race is held in a relatively small area it makes for some great race viewing. Plus there is a chili contest every year so make sure you come hungry.
Both of these races are used as fundraisers for the club to build and maintain the trails in our area. There will be a raffle at each of the races to win a sweet bike frame. You could win a Salsa MTB frame on Saturday and a Kona CX from on Sunday. With your raffle ticket you will also get a really nice cycling/x-c skiing hat to wear around this fall and winter.
