    Major Battle Plans for the Day: The next week looks rainy, so we need to focus hard on getting water off the trail anywhere it is holding water. I will be doing some scouting in the next couple of days to identify any more problem areas.
    -Deberm IMBA Infuence
    -Area on Veritas between bench at Bridge 2 and the mini-ravine crossings. Armor crossings. The race is not on this trail section, but it will get a lot of traffic in the next week.
    -Rattlesnake. Re-establish trail on rocky climb. Eliminate bypass.
    -Armor root area at top of Beer Run
    -Re-route race trail across upper prairie. It is eroding badly.
    -Armor rooty crossing into Heather's Hill
    -Reroute trail after Kipps Climb. Carrying water.
    -Chatter bumps on Mayors Playground into berms. These are a hazard for the younger Junior riders.
    -Get the trails in tip-top shape. If they are in perfect shape, other than adding a few passing areas, that is all they really need for the race.

    We will meet up at the CORP Garage, across the street from CamRock Sport, at 8:30a.
    As usual, wear clothes you can get dirty. Gloves are a good idea to avoid blisters. Bring water to stay hydrated.
    Let's have some fun and whip these trails into shape!

    Bump for a reminder. Hope to see you in the morning!

    It is going to be a great day to get the trails polished up. They will be in awesome shape for the race and anyone else riding them!

    Don't forget sunscreen and a good pair of gloves. And a bike for post-work riding would be a splendid idea. It is going to be a gorgeous day out here.
    If you are coming later just look for us in the CamRock III area, or give me a call at 7:SEVEN:2 7:EIGHT THREE:3.
    It's a great day for building trail!
