We added two new sections of single track, took one section out, and changed the section by the campsite.

Nice work by Dave and Sharon on the tri course bike loop!
I ran it yesterday and today. Anyone who has done it in the past there are alot of little changes, so you really have to pay attention the the arrows. I'm looking forward to the first race

Mark,
Glad you liked it. Did you happen to have a GPS on when you ran it? We haven't figured out yet how long it is. David |

Mark,
I ran it today with my GPS and come up with 4.75 miles. Let me know what you come up with. We may have to figure out how to add a little more on to get it close to 5 miles. David |

David:
With two GPS units we got the following: Bike loop: 4.85 miles Run loop: 2.9 miles We started at the edge of the grass by the shed at the exit of transition area and stopped right at entrance to transiton/finish line. We also marked the exact mile marks on the run with orange surveyor's tape on the right hand side of the trail. Mile one is just before the 90 degree turn before the powerlines. Mile two is just at the top of the short hill before the powerline second crossing. We also removed some trail debris. Mainly after the camp site and on Scout trail. |

Mark,
Sharon and I made all the fixes to the signs today...yours, mine, and hers. We also made another small change to the bike course to hopefully get it to 5 miles: When coming upon the Power Lines from Field Crossing you now take a left turn and go up Power Line and take a right onto Great Scott instead of crossing straight over to Winding Hills. Then, from Great Scott you take a right onto Hilltop Trail and then take the left fork at the intersection of Winding Hills and continue on the old route. David |
