I'll Echo the terrible state of the trails, MAJOR work needs to be done.

Springs does have a notice out to hire a person for
" ASC Greenway - Trail Maint. Crew Member"
It is a full time position if any one is interested.

Not trying to make it look like you are standing alone, but I decided to delete my rant so as to not derail this wonderful race series.  Go ride this great race and be careful.

Prior to the race a lot of trail work is always done to get it in great shape.
The trail gnomes get out there cut the grass back trim the over growth etc.
It will take a bit of work to get some sections fixd but the biggest problem has been all the rain. You know we have had plenty when you can't ride N.M.

I sent mine in via snail mail...did the same last year.

I bonked my head pretty good at last year's and had to sit out after lap #4 (mild concussion). Looking forward to it!

I've raced the Tree Shaker here too...love these trails! 

I live two hours away. If these trails are in crummy condition, they're stil light years better than anything I have local, so I'm stoked.
