Easy As got some trail loving this week before the rains hit.
Nothing too outlandish, just some maintenance on the surfacing we did last year. Getting it all sweet for the wet season as part of our commitment to quality.
Be nice!

Gave it sweep for optimal traction this weekend. Get to it!
We will be monitoring this trail surfacing over summer to see how it copes through the dry times! That will be the real test!

I love my job, I really do... but every day there are challenges and sacrifies to be made to make sure humans can enjoy nature without impacting on culture, community or country.
The ridiculous amount of fossil fuels I burn through to make this magic happen does not sit well with me. There has to be a better way! It's imperative.
I look forward to the day I can run my excavation equipment on bio diesel or something renewable. I look foward to the day when catching a train or a boat to a riding destination in Australia is both feasible and cost effective. I look forward to the day when most riders can safely ride to their ride on sweet flowing single track.
In the mean time I'll just keep doing the best I can to make sure my trail legacy is positive rather than negative!!! #traillove #redcentre

Heading home today but couldn't leave the #redcentre without a quick blast around the Eastside Trails!
So good to work with TRC, Tricky Tracks and Traditional Owners to create a truly magnificent trail alignment for the Red Centre Adventure Ride! Thank you!
Shout out to the professionals I've been working with @trctourism @tricky.tracks @one_life_wild @martykrieg75 and of course Chris, Janet and Lisa at TRV.... Thanks @outbackcycling for the great service and super fun hire bike once again!
Well done to Parks NT and local Alice MTB Community for working so hard to make this world a better place! "To go fast we travel alone. To go far we travel together!" Love you long time!
