FYI, we are grooming & watering the Sand Pit MX track every Wed., usually ready to ride by 4pm. Will most likely have track closed Tues 9/10 for grooming to let it set up over night for more watering & early riding Wed 9/11. I keep current weekly info & pics on it at www.facebook.com/playdirtusa. It costs $$$ to pay for water bill & equip fuel to provide this dust free awesome track riding, so please don't forget, just like our "Freedom", this stuff ain't 'Free'! Come out & hang with us for some great extra mid week evening practice! Track crew is all 'Volunteer time'; Tyson on the loader (full days work to groom entire track), Steve & JB on the water truck (a workout in itself to drive & takes all day), Brian (water truck owner), Sieg of Steve's Transmission donates use of his loader, me (fuel man, final track prep, trashman), & Garric (2nd equip operator).

We had an EPIC track day yesterday with a big crowd of great people, good to meet some new guys out there. Tyson & Steve groomed & watered the track to PERFECTION, couldn't have been any better. Thanks to ALL who helped us make sure we can keep this 'community event' going every Wed! If you missed it, make sure to get some laps in with us next week!

***ALERT*** US Forest Service LOCKED the gate to the Sand Pit track as part of shutting down National Parks in an obvious attempt to 'Strong Arm' & impose DC's Will on the American People! The Sand Pit costs the gov nothing, they don't maintain it, us volunteers/riders do all the work over there & pay for everything.....it costs the gov more to send a Ranger out to lock the gate than to leave it open. I will be going over to see if I can get the gate open, the time has come to take a STAND or roll over & accept Tyranny!
I suggest making your voice heard with your Reps if value your Freedom & Liberty, which have been paid for with BLOOD! I'm on the horn to Heller's Reno office now since this is a FEDERAL matter!

bolt cutters.... in all seriousness, i hope it gets reopened...total bummer I would except lock is encased in guard not accessible to cutters. I'd like a few hundred Armed Patriots to go with me, -Re-Open the gates & stand guard in Civil Disobedience to Tyranny!

Took a couple pics of the track yesterday as it sits in current hibernation, just for everyone to see at www.facebook.com/playdirtusa USFS gate access to track scheduled to open 5/10/14. Track will be hammered/rutted & basically no good for riding until some work is done to it, don't know yet when that will happen depending on volunteers & what equip is available to groom with. Stay tuned.

South Lake Tahoe Sand Pit mx track NOW OPEN!!! FULL PREP for opening day today so load up & come on up! Track is fun & safe for all (safety factor similar to Fernley). Sand track, so sand or intermediate terrain tires work great.
Crew is at the track watering as I type. Get up & pound some laps in the pines & get summer kicked off right in Tahoe!
Directions: Go thru the "Y" at the Emerald Bay/Tahoe Blvd intersection & stay on Lake Tahoe Blvd, (you will pass by the Toyota dealership if you are on Tahoe Blvd), go past Industrial Ave & approx. 500 yrds on the left is the USFS gate, follow dirt road up hill to track.
Note: USFS LEO's come thru from time to time to check for bike stickers/reg's.....just sayin.
