When is the next meeting or trail maint.? And is the news letter ever coming back online? I've noticed all summer long that there are motorcycle users destroying portions of the trails out at blue river, what can be done about it. I was there yesterday and heard them and when i got back to where I started there were fresh tracks and ruts.

I've been using the trails ever since I moved here to KC and have never given anything back and I figure it's about time ( to be fair I've attempted to a few times but your scheduling usually interferes with my work schedule).

Vlad, it's probably best to ask on the email list for the earthriders. I think there is a link to how to get on that on www.earthriders.com. I think the most recent meeting was last week, but I'm not sure because I don't go to them, I live too far out to make it. I know they're working on some new web stuff so maybe the newsletter will appear online.

The meetings are usually on the 3rd Wednesday of the month. Last week we met at the Westport Flea for drinks and food. Like Marcus said, check the Earthriders site for details on the next one.

The schedule for winter maintenance is set, and can be viewed at www.mountainbikekc.com. It would be great if you could help out. There is plenty to do.

Regarding motorcycles at Blue River, I've encountered them too. The only thing that can be done is to try and have law enforcement catch them in the act which is difficult at best. It's a difficult problem to solve.
