Last weekend was our spring build day at The Radlands in Redmond. If you didn't make it out, too bad!

Our spring trail build was a huge success thanks to the over 50 volunteers and delicious coffee and breakfast provided by Rocket Coffee of Redmond, and sub sandwiches provided by
New York City Sub Shop.
We were able to complete a .8 mile section of trail that connects the future Antler Rd. trail head to the tip of the south loop. We completed it so fast that we took some volunteers to other trouble spots on other trails to do some maintenance which included recreating the original trail head at the baseball fields to hopefully provide for better drainage. The day was a huge success and we are already flagging more trail in the southern portion of the network! Look for more technical sections to come.

Following the trail build the team headed into the dry canyon for a small photo shoot with Fletcher Jackson - www.fjacksonphoto.com - to make things easier on Shane when he's looking for decent pics of the team. Huge thanks to Fletcher for his time and amazing photos!
For a couple team members all of those Saturday events just weren't enough for them, so Bob and Sean headed to Ashland on Sunday to help with a trail build and to ride some of the incredible trails Ashland has to offer. Oh and Bob won a hitch mount rack at the raffle...
