Forage at the Farm – Thanks!

Motor City Mountain Biking Association

Thanks to everyone for participating in our first MCMBA Progressive Breakfast at Lakeshore today! I think the brisk morning temperatures may have scared a few away, but those with the fortitude to brave 45 degree temps enjoyed some awesome treats and camaraderie.

Our volunteers hosted eight stations throughout the trail: Coffee, Pancakes, Juices, Bacon/Sausage, Fruits, Pastries, Eggs, and Desserts. The treats and homemade specialties that our volunteers contributed added a tasty (and personal) touch that we all appreciated. I know that I have a new appreciation for PBR mixology!

While considering the cholesterol in the 16 lbs of bacon that we consumed, please enjoy the following photos (Thanks Claudia and Mike!)

    Trail Trimming Time

    It’s a common refrain this time of year… “Trail was awesome yesterday but lots of face slappers and blind inside corners at speed.” “The trail was great, but the over growth was getting out of hand.” “Just like every other trail out there – there are way to many face slappers.” Warm weather, sun, rain…
