The long term plan for the land is uncertain, but it will likely remain "public" in some sense and hopefully our use as MTBers will continue.

Tony Scott replied to Marty Weigel's discussion Future of Crystal Ridge?"I think this would be great for the county from a standpoint of making one of their large spaces something that can be a producer for them. Also, this would hopefully insure the existance of the trail that started it all in MKE county..."
Cody Gunst replied to Marty Weigel's discussion Future of Crystal Ridge?"What would said "Bike Park" entail both as far as features, expenditures and overhead? Talk is cheap. Would it be staffed? Will the park be built by volunteer or through IMBA Trail Solutions? I think there is room for an indoor BMX Track…"

Looking for a 6 a.m. start, at a location tbd yet, but prolly in the Menomonee Valley, near Miller Park. Please let me know if you're interested!

fattybikejones said… - Hey Marty.. My Bike is being delivered tomorrow.. I will be spending Saturday building and tuning it up.. Wooo-Hooo! I live in West Allis. Pretty outta shape, but willing to jump back into this thing. Gonna be riding some utility trails to recoup some stamina .. all the while sneaking rides on the Alpha trail.. Looking forward to being an active part of metro mountain bikers! Peace. Are the Harley trails open to bikes?? It's been awhile..

- Thought for sure the alpha would be open today - took off early - went out there and bam... gates are closed. How come? Did it rain since Wed?
And there were at least two people parked in the golf lot, and riding anyway... didn't want to be an ass like them so I came home.
