Caught up with Rich and Joel out at Hillside in Elk River yesterday, they have some great things in the works for this summer which includes some more advanced trail sections and a dirt jump area.(More news on that as we figure out all the details!) They were lucky enough that a local landscaper and mountain biker brought a skid steer and mini excavator to build out a line that Joel spotted over the winter. Here’s a quick video of Tony ridin’ the line!

If you ride in the midwest then you understand that, although we may be a collection of many small groups of riders spread out over a large area, we are still a single community. We all know the joys and struggles of riding in a part of the country that doesn’t always have ideal terrain or a culture that embraces our sport.
Freeriding serves as a common bond which can turn complete strangers into lifelong friends. Whether it’s meeting up at events or getting together to throw some dirt, it is always good to catch up with people who share the same passion.
It is time to organize our efforts and create more progressive events, more sanctioned areas to ride, and become a more legtimate recreational pursuit in the eyes of the people who call the shots.
