Nice Chickasaw Trace Park MTB video

Scarecrow Century taking precautions for COVID-19
Event director, Duane Leach, has committed to purchasing all individually wrapped food for the rest stops of the Scarecrow Century on October 17, 2020. Registration will be outdoors in front of the school entrance as well as the eating afterwards. Sag vehicles will be equipped with disposable masks in the event someone needs a ride back.
CLASSIC AND JAILBREAK CANCELLED
Due to the continuing issues with COVID-19, especially in our area, the Columbia Cycling Club board of directors made the decision to cancel the Classic, Time Trial and Jailbreak Triathlon for 2020. The Scarecrow Century is still on, October 17, 2020, and I hope you will join us for that.
May 3rd storms devastate Chickasaw
On May 3rd, heavy winds caused massive trees to fall over all of Chickasaw. It appeared that the trail would not be rideable for weeks. However, several volunteers went to work right away and cleared it in four days. HUGE thanks to Jonathan Johnston, Maranda and Joey Paterniti, Emily and Richard Ferguson, Shane and Mac Wilson, Rick Harris, Tim Hoeldtke, Mark Gendrolis, Warren from Spring Hill, Vic Beck, Aaron Bigger, Michael Erdman, Jim Ribeiro and Ben Varela.
Donation request for bridges and Aaron Bigger
We have committed to building a 68’ rolling bridge across a muddy section of the new trail we have been building. And we need to do something with the deteriorating bridge on the River Trail as well. Donor’s names will be etched onto the structure as well as those who help build it.
A second fund has been set up to reimburse Aaron Bigger for general expenses he has incurred, such as saw blades, and just reward him a little extra. He has worked hundreds of hours by himself making these new trails and features. To donate, please see the donation link at https://columbiacycling.clubexpress.com
