Trash Clean Up in Caspar Orchard Area

This clean up day MCC collected the least amount of trash in the five years we have been working in this area. Maybe we are making an impression on dumpers. The party spots were the hardest to pick up this year. We got allot of nails (from burned pallets) and broken glass but many nails remain. JDSF may be getting a rolling magnet this would help to get almost all of the nails. Schools are going on summer break so we may see increased use of party spots. Use care when riding through these spots, S.H. Trail at T.V. Trail, and Rd 500 at Rd 511 (Wuss Hill).

PAL Sale Bike Check

Saturday morning the truck loads of bikes kept coming from the FBPD storage yard (they now have a shed so stored bikes will not stay out in the weather as in the past) and more than 30 bikes where dropped off behind Fort Bragg Cyclery.
We checked the bikes brakes, aired up tires, lubed or replaced chains, cables, shifters and derailleurs. Some bearing adjustments, wheel truing, seat, and grip replacements were also needed.
A few bikes presented quite a challenge others only needed lube.
At the end of the day we had over 20 bikes ready for the PAL sale!
