Saw on Strava that the Canal trail was a mess after the storm we had. Went out Sunday and cleared 2 large messes. Going CW the 1st one was about 75 yards before the boardwalk and the 2nd was about 75 yards after the large gulley. On the way out there is a large tree down about 40 yard past the new cut section of trail. I started to cut it out but, I ran out of water and energy. (not a good combination when running a chainsaw) I don't know what condition the south end of the trail is. Please post if there is any other trail blockage.

2 trees down on Great Wall. Going CW the first one is just past the bench before the bridge and the second one is about 1/4 mile past the bridge.

We are going to have a work party at the Augusta Canal Single Track Trail on TUESDAY, JULY 22, 2014. This is for the Lady's ride on July 26 presented by Andy Jordan's Bike Warehouse and the Explore the Trail Ride presented by SORBA-CSRA on August 2nd. We will meet at the Canal gate on Goodrich St (behind the Kroc Center) by the old mills at 5:15 (you must be on time because we have to lock the gate after we go in). If you show up later, you can park at Eisenhower ball field and walk in from there. If we have enough people, we will be running the DR mowers, hedgeing, sawing and lopping as much of the trail as we can before dark. Remember to bring water and work gloves. Also, there is a lot of poison ivey on this trail, you may want to wear long pants and shirt. Please let us know here on the forum if you can attend.

Come spend a little time with Mother Nature on Mother's Day. We will have a work party on the Augusta Canal Single Track on Sunday, May 11th in preparation for the Canal Crown Time Trials. This will be a full work party. We will need plenty of volunteers to run the DR mowers, hedge trimmers, we will have some chainsaw work and a little shovel work, lopping and trimming. If you have any favorite tools you would like to bring, please do so, other wise we will have them. Remember to bring water and gloves. We will meet at the gate off Goodrich St. near the old mills. You need to be there by 8:00 am so we can all drive in together. Please let us know here on the forum or on our Facebook page or on Andy Jordan's Bike Warehouse Facebook page of you can help.

How long will the work party last? I have to work that morning and would like to help out if I can. I would be able to make it out there around 12:30.
