Spend long weekend building mountain bike trails
TAMBA is putting on two trail days this weekend.
The first is Sunday on the Tyrolean Downhill Trail. Meet at 9am May 27 at the lower Diamond Peak parking lot across from the Big Water Grill. Workers will then caravan to the work site.
Volunteers must wear long pants, long sleeves and sturdy footwear. Bring drinking water and work gloves. A burrito lunch from T’s will be provided and Village Ski Loft will be providing a cooler of drinks at the end of the day.
The Reno Pump Track will break ground later May 28 with TAMBA and the Poedunks hosting a community build day from 9am until mid-afternoon.
The location is Panther Valley Park, 650 Link Lane, Reno. There is plenty of room for parking around the corner on Western Drive.
Volunteer to work all or part of the day, every little bit helps. Monday’s work day will involve the finishing and dialing in of the multiple tracks and jump lines. Wear Long pants, gloves, and sturdy shoes (no sandals, Teva’s, Crocs, etc,). We will be using hand tools and most will be provided. But rakes, square shovels, or tampers would be welcome.
Feel free to bring your bikes and helmets for test rides.
Black Rock Bicycles will be providing a barbecue lunch for all volunteers.
The grand opening party is tentatively scheduled for late afternoon on June 22.
Amazing how much effort TAMBA puts in to public lands for the population to enjoy.
