Who is participating in the #socialdistancing Scavenger Hunt?! Has anyone worked out item 2 yet? Let’s start seeing some pictures! ❤️🚵🏼‍♂️ “This Easter symbol "wood" love to hop around the trails with you.“ @imba_us @sorba_main @landtrustnal @montesanostatepark

Remember when the entrance to Family Trail used to look like this first picture regularly?! This improvement (using a park picnic table!) is the sort of thing we do to keep our trails maintainable so we can all enjoy them sooner after it rains! Joining or renewing your membership definitely helps out. And, it’ll be one less thing you have to worry about when we’re able to hold time trials. 😉 #hamrtime #trailwork #preservingtrails @montesanostatepark @sorba_main

Who’s ready to hit the trails for our scavenger hunt? Does anyone think they’ve figured out the first one?! 🤔

They soar above - a sight to see. Their place of rest from me you'll find. Oh home of the brave and land of the free!”

Hey HAMR members and friends,

It's probably no surprise to anyone, but our first quarterly member meeting and social is canceled. Please keep yourselves safe and healthy, and continue to enjoy the trail systems when they are dry (as in, not today). Hopefully we'll be back next quarter with a regular meeting, but in the meantime, be on the lookout for an email from Gary Bolton, HAMR president, with an update soon! -Your 2020 HAMR Board

Feeling a little cooped up right now with all the #socialdistancing and rain?! While trails are still too wet to ride, now is a great opportunity to slow down a little with a flower hike. You might even bring a few tools along to clear corridors on trails as you go, especially if you’ve adopted a trail this year. ⚒ #hamrtime #volunteer @montesanostatepark @landtrustnal @imbatrailsolutions

A note from @imba_us @sorba_main and your @hamrhsv board:

To our friends and partners in mountain biking,

Getting out on the trails is tremendously valuable. Trails bring us together, but to keep each other safe, we must keep our distance. How can our community navigate this challenge?
First and foremost, refer to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for best practices, as well as guidelines from your state and local governments. Then, as appropriate, cautiously take advantage of trails and outdoor spaces unless you are feeling ill. We will all benefit from fresh air.

Should mountain bikers host group rides or trail work days?

Cancel, postpone or reschedule upcoming events including races, trail work, and group rides until there are new government directives. For now, let’s ride in very small groups, keep our distance, and enjoy our trails close to home to minimize the risks associated with car travel.

How can trail users pass responsibly with social distance?

Stay alert, slow down, and communicate with each other from a distance about how to proceed. With gyms and rec centers closing, there may be new users on the trails. It’s a great time for community education on responsible riding and for being patient, exemplary stewards.

Of course, we are still complying with following guidelines about not riding muddy trails and checking @trailforks for open/closed status of our trails, as well! Be healthy, safe, and we’ll see you on the trails soon!

HAMR members and friends, First, we recognize tha
