The second Summer Session for the Golden Open Space will be on Saturday, June 26th. As those have been working out there know, we are now deep into the Canyon and there's lots of great trail to develop. Jim would like us to meet promptly at the Trail Head parking area on La Madera Rd. before 9:00AM.
For those who want to car pool, there will be a gathering at the Tijeras Ranger Station at 8:00AM.
We have a need for some "Bob Captains" to bring tools in on a bike, so if you are so inclined, let Bob Galloway or I know.
Bring a bike!!! You can now ride to the work site!!! |
The Rollicking Rock Trail is now open!!! |

Enjoy Albuquerque!
Well we worked hard this spring and now we have a new trail segement in Foo-Ville. The City of Albuquerque Open Space (AOS) has given us permission to officially open the "Rollicking Rock" trail for riding.
National Trails Day was on Saturday and thanks to the effort of a number of dedicated FooMTB Members, we were able to get the trail completed to a point where we can now ride it.
I would like to caution though that the trail is still "green" so be careful on it. We will be doing some evening sessions to try to work out some areas that still need improvement, so stay tuned to the website and hopefully we can get a few folks to help really finish things off.
Next up is probably a diagonal connection over to the SKS, which already has a bootleg trail coming up a wash. We'll see if AOS want to consider it for a Fall Project. Then next year we'd like to tackle "Yucca Mountain". Yes a trail around the knob, mound, or what ever you wanna call it, and even perhaps a climbing spiral to the top.
So how was National Trails Day??? Well it was hot, but we had a nice canyon breeze so it wasn't that bad. We started around 9:30AM and we finish by about noon.
Here's a link to some pictures we took out there.
Thanks for your efforts to complete this project!!!
