There will be a work party on the Ape Canyon Trail at Mount St Helens National Volcanic Monument on Sunday, August 3. Bring nippers, limbing saw, or similar tool that will fit in your backpack. Bring your camera and enough food and fluid to last the day. There is an excellent chance that we will be able to get the trail work done and still have plenty of time to ride across the Plains toward the ladders. This is a great opportunity to get up on the mountain. Start: 8:00 am

I am planning on taking a week from Aug. 17 - Aug. 23 to do a road trip up to Whister BC with my bike and my dog. I have never been there, but I figure it won't be hard to find some phenomonal riding. I am going to be camping and doing a budget trip. If anyone is interested in joining me for the adventure give me a shout. | ||

I'm thinking of traveling down to Diamond Lake to do the NW CHallenge XC race. I've heard mixed reviews about this race from last year's participants. I also hear the trails are great and the views stunning. Looking for riders who want to go down Friday and return Sunday that weekend. Details on the race are still sketchy, ,but hopefully will be posted soon. What little data athere is can be found here: Start: 6:00 pm
