Great work day.  We got the trail  sorted out up to the triple.  Louis did a great job sorting out the stump situation by the slight uphill which should ride much better now. Also Jack was able to get a small berm built just prior to the triple which should really help in keeping your pace up going into the technical stuff. More to come, hope you can make the next work day.

This may be a dumb question, but can someone tell me the significance of the trail name "277 Trail".  Since its clearly not near I277.  Just curious, 

Thanks,

It's a holdover from the early days of the trail. Ballantynes  ZIP Code is 28277 the trails are in Ballantyne community park .
