EVENTS COMING UP

February 1 – Group ride at Freedom Park at 10 am followed by club meeting and lunch at noon at the Interpretive Center. There is a very good chance of rain so be sure to check EVMA Chatter that morning for ride cancellation.  Meeting will still go on even if ride does not.  Come out and help plan the EVMA spring trip, discuss other trail work needs, and get your T-shirt order submitted. 

February 8 – Trail work at Wahrani at 9 am.

Night rides – Night rides are still happening at Harwood’s Mill on Tuesdays, New Quarter Park on Wednesdays and Freedom Park on Thursdays but not for much longer.  Get out and ride while you still can.  Rides begin at 6 pm and we have to be out of the parks by 8 pm.  Every rider should have 2 lights, and no one should be riding alone.  Rides will be canceled if there are not at least 2 riders.

OTHER NOTES

Lake Maury Trail Signing - Newport News park has asked Mike Gross to sign the trails at Lake Maury as was done at Harwood’s Mill. Mike needs someone who is very familiar with the trails to consult on a loop system, and later install the signs.  Please contact him if you are able to help.

A Big Thank You – Thank you to everyone who donated to the EVMA trail fund in December.  There were over $700 in donations brought in that will not go to any admin expenses.  It’s never too late to donate.  All donations go directly to trail maintenance.
