We took some time last week to make a very important stop to say ‘thanks’ to another Public Lands Initiative supporter.  We visited Quality Bicycle Products (QBP) in Bloomington, MN.  Located in the heart of some really cool cycling culture, QBP is also at the core of the bicycle advocacy movement.  They walk the talk [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We traded in the country roads of Wisconsin for the (sub) urban streets of Minneapolis this past weekend. The visit started with the Thursday night group ride at Lebanon Hills. Organized by the Minnesota Off-Road Cyclists, this weekly ride is just one of the many events that this very successful club puts on. MORC, at 800+ members strong, is an important part of the mountain biking scene not just in the metro area, but statewide. They are a stellar example of what happens when a unified group moves in a positive direction.

We didn’t really know what to expect when it came to our visit in Viroqua. As Wisconsin neophytes and fresh off our summer break, we were eager to dig into our first foray to the Upper Midwest. By the end of the weekend we had discovered a great new place for trails, supported by an [...]]]></description>

While the weekend went swimmingly and we were able to accomplish an almost complete reroute of a fall-line section of trail on the Schultz Creek trail, we learned lots about Forest Service trail classifications.

		<description><![CDATA[Second to riding trail that we just built, and I guess riding in general, our favorite thing to do is build new trail. Usually, but not always, our Trail Care Crew visits enable people to first learn how to build sustainable trails, then go out into the field to do just that.
However, in some areas, [...]]]></description>

Last weekend we spent time with Fats in the Cats, the local club who is working hard to make connections that benefit the entire Hudson Valley.
