What mountain bike chapter board members sometimes do: recruit volunteers

Some of my fellow Cannon River Offroad Cycling and Trails (#CROCT) board members met at my house this past week to phone, text, email, and message our 'contacts.' We're recruiting 75 volunteers to march banners in the upcoming @defeat.of.jesse.james.days parade which will net our chapter $1,000. It's not exactly glamorous work but that money will help to fund more construction of local mtb trails and bike park features. @murraygd13, @gar_brindo, Sarah Jansen, Aleasha Markley, Jeremy Bokman, & Carl Arnold (not pictured)

Sometimes mountain bike advocacy requires good working relationships with city hall

I'm a Cannon River Offroad Cycling and Trails (#CROCT) board member, as is @martini_ss. On August 26, we signed contract (MOU) with the City of Northfield, Minnesota for our MTB trail in Sechler Park. It took a while but the right amount of persistence and civility paid off in the end. Props to City Engineer Dave Bennett, Streets & Parks Manager Jasper J Kruggel, the Northfield Parks & Rec Advisory Board (PRAB), and the Northfield City Council for their unanimous support. And a tip of the helmet to @man.drews at @imba_midwest @imba_us for his behind-the-scenes consulting.
