Collins and Kelly are super cool people; They stayed with some friends of mine when they were in Phoenix. If anyone has the room at their house for the weekend, I know they'd appreciate the stay, they are awesome house guests.

Don't forget about this event.  If you are into doing trail work or would like to get involved with trail work this is a great event. Doing volunteer trail work is a great way to get involved and support mountain biking in the area.  It is really fun to ride trail that you had a hand in building, it helps give mountain bikers creditability with the land managers, which eventually leads to more access.

There is more to building trails than a machete and a rake, don’t worry I was surprised to! This is a great opportunity to learn about all of the trail building techniques that we have applied when building trails at Waverly and at other trail systems in the area.  If you have ever decided not to come to a trail day because you didn't feel like you knew what you are doing, this class is a great way to over come that.  They do a really good job at presenting the information in the class and then having you apply those techniques in the field immediately on the same day.

I have been to two of these IMBA trail schools and I have learned a lot each time.  This is event not to miss!

I don't wanna go because I'm fat but I'm going anyways.  hehe

Serious question though...

I won't be able to make the classroom stuff as I have to work 'til 12 sooooo,
if it's pouring rain is there still going to be field work or what?  I'd hate to show up rearing to go and it be cancelled by rain.  I think I've still got your phone # Mike so I'll call if the weather is looking bad here in Lex.

I'm not fat. That's a fuel tank for the love machine!!!

Hey guys...wish I could make it, but duty calls and I have to honor my military commitments this weekend. I'm really looking forward to seeing the bridges they are putting across the sinkholes.
