From forum user Deworms:

Spirit Mountain is contemplating running a lift for biking next summer I know it is a real possibility but is not for sure yet. It is being discussed,they are not sure if there is enough interest to make it worth it. I was hoping we could help them make it happen by showing our support for a bike park in Duluth MN. So here are some questions to get this forum moving. What are you looking for in a riding destination/ bike park. Would you buy a season pass if they were offered? Attend a build day to help maintain the trail system? Take a trip to ride there? Basically would you ride if there was The opportunity and what are you looking for. please help this happen post something they are looking for interest at this point. So help open more lift assisted gravity mountain biking in the mid west by posting up some thing showing your support and maybe we can help make it happen.

Please post up here!

La Crosse Super-D 10/18/2009

Put it on your calendar in Pen!

Jed Olson of HPT trails has been kind enough to help put together one last fiesta for this season. On October 18th there will be a Super-D in La Crosse Wisconsin. My understanding is that it will include features that appeal to both the downhill crowd and the endurance crowd. This race will be similar to the design of the recent Afton Super-D, only this race will be twice as long.

If you haven’t been down to check out the HPT trails or dirt jumps, this is an excellent opportunity!

Here is the race flyer: kash for klunking flyer

———————————————————————————
Tonight we met with the Maple Plain city council and they approved the BMX Dirt Jump Park after our presentation on the jumps and the pump track and how we plan to build and maintain them.

There is a lot of work to be done yet. But the key here is that the City Council gave us and the Maple Plain Park Commission permisson to move forward with the plans. We have to find some contractors to move the dirt from it’s current location to the new location. A few of the members of the city council plan on making calls to get that done. Once that is done, we can set up a weekend to build the BMX Dirt jumps.

This is an exciting time for BMX in the west suburbs. We will have our first official dirt jump park. No more need to illegally build……..we are approved and ready to build a facility that will be for all skill levels from beginner riders to experts.

These are the plans for the Dirt Jump Park that we presented to the city. This will be one awesome set of jumps with a fun beginner line, an intermediate line with transfer options, and an advanced line with 6′ high tables for some serious air!

We will announce the build dates as soon as we know them. Thanks to all of the efforts by our crew for getting this organized and approved!
