Beatty-Bad Pine Tree Down

Just a heads up: There is a downed tree that, because of the location is a big hazard to fast riders.  Located behind the Soccer Fields on the fast little right hand downhill bend that approaches a jump.

I was loafing along on a recovery ride of sorts today and able to dodge it without a prob.

But a rider closing fast behind me had to lay it down to avoid it.  That rider (Jamey) was ok, but it could have been worse as he was riding much faster than me.  Jamey and I were able to move the downed tree a-bit with cave-man tactics........

Jamey marked the trail upstream with a primitive barricade of sorts as neither of us had any flagging tape.

So Heads UP!
