Great ride on part of the course today!

We rode the western loop of the course today and everything looked good (after a few small changes)! We’ve decided we will remove a portion of the Yellow Ribbon Greenway near the airport property that is really blown in, and we’re cutting the northern most section of the Sturgeon Creek path a bit shorter. Additionally on the eastern loop we’re eliminated the Sage Creek area which is mostly impassible due to heavy snow. Total course distance will be a bit shorter as a result, but not by much, and most of the existing course remains intact. All of those details will be updated to our GPS, cue sheets, and Course Description soon.
