Hello Everyone!

I'm a Madison OneWheeler rider that really enjoys the CORP trails along with the rest of the OneWheel community. We would really like to keep it that way, so if there is any issues with OneWheels being on the CORP trails, can we PLEASE have a conversation? I'm more than happy to be the point person for the OneWheelers in the Madison area.

We do our best to be as respectful as possible to everyone on the trails. If it wasn't known, the trails actually benefit from OneWheels, since we pack them down with our wide tires.

I saw in some Facebook groups that there was an issue with a OneWheel group ride at Quarry Ridge this past weekend (9/23). The complaint being we had a large group going down Porkchop, blocking bikers. I can assure you we don't have normally have group rides on trails often, and we don't normally run large group trains down trails. This must have been the one time we went down as a group when I was giving the group a tour of the trails. Most OneWheelers that ride trails are experienced and ride at a reasonably fast pace and always move out of the way of bikers. I've been riding trails for over three years now and this is the first time we've had an issue. Most bikers are fascinated and impressed by the OneWheelers on trails.

Please don't take the CORP trails from the OneWheel community. It means so much to us on personal health level. I can't express how much healthy joy and benefit we get from these trails that is different than anything else.

Aside from the casual riders that love the trails for personal enjoyment, there are also OneWheelers that use these trails for race training. I, myself, travel around the country racing OneWheels and the CORP trails have most, if not all, the amenities to train effectively. With that being said, most OneWheelers on trails will be riding solo or in an experienced group with less than three riders.

This is a land manager issue where my last knowledge was all the area municipalities adopted or were adopting the 2019 Wisconsin Act 34 as local ordinance.

Act 34 was a mix of repeal, amend and create the new statutes that define and regulate. Defining is or was based on the industry's class 1, 2 and 3 bikes.

https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/2019/related/acts/34

As a trail steward I respect the ordinances where I volunteer, and always hope people behave in a way that respects the land managers, other users, and respects the huge amounts of efforts put in by volunteers.

OneWheel not being e-assist, and not fitting into the ordinance that allows mobility assist for being ill or disabled where the red flags last time I was aware of city hall dialog.

I just want to do trail steward stuff and hope for no trouble here.

...and on a related note, a handful of community trail builders are going to be out there on Saturday 9/23 at 11am to work on a couple new tech features. Join us if you can, the more the merrier!

I'm a new lover of The Burdocks and am planning to do some invasive plant work in the next couple of weeks (hopefully) before they drop all of their seeds.  Is there anyone out there who would be interested in joining me? So grateful for this neat trail system and the community that builds and maintains it!

The pump track at Middleton Bike Park is open!  Painting and landscaping need to be completed, which will happen in the next few weeks, so if there are people there working, stay out of the way and let them do their jobs.  And please avoid walking or riding on any freshly seeded areas.  Otherwise, have at it!  Look for a grand opening celebration in the spring, when the plantings have come in.
