    Time to give the Farm a buzz. Hopefully I've waited long enough that if we give it one good wacking it will be good for the year.
    I have managed to get out and do one side of the trail on the south loop. Planning to go out again tomorrow (Monday) night  after work, 5:30ish. If anyone wants to join me that would be great.
    If you have time sometime this week, just go start working on the north loop whenever works best for you. Just post up here what you get done so others know where to start when they come out.
    Once I get the south loop done, I will work on getting the connector mowed.
    Thanks
    Greg

    I’m planning to trim weeds at the Farm on Thursday morning August 5th. Would you like to help? Have you been looking for an opportunity to see these trails? Message to coordinate.

    I can do that. Meet at north loop trail entrance or elsewhere?

    Thanks to Rwill for joining me to trim the North Loop. It is nearly complete.
    If you can help:

    The unfinished section of trail is clockwise from the Barlow entrance towards the connector.

    There is a tree down that will require a chainsaw not far from the Barlow entrance going counterclockwise.  There was one more small one further on, but it can be dragged off the trail by first riders.

    The connector was recently mowed, but I don't know what the state of things are on the South Loop.

    I will see about getting to the remainder of the north loop early next week if no one else gets there first.

    Who is in for south loop? Maybe we could get a work and ride together sometime?

    I've been picking away at the south loop. I'm about 3/4 done. Should be able to finish it up one night next week.
    Thanks for doing the north loop guys.

    I blew leaves off of both loops.

    south loop needs a saw in two spots.

    North loop needs a saw in half a dozen spots.
