TABLES AND CHAIRLIFTS AND BERMS, OH MY I've been hired by @welchvillage General Mgr @pzotalis to be their first mountain bike instructor when they open their 4 lift-served gravity flow trails in July. I spent the morning there yesterday, getting a tour of the green-level trail ("Joy Ride") and the blue/black-level trail (Air Bear) being constructed by Tim Wegner, @bigbossbuck, @wjbartholomew and other crew members of Trail Source. Another blue-level trail and a black-level trail are in the works. Just to give you an idea of what's being built: Air Bear alone has 22 jumps.
