Kansas Singletrack Society

KSS will be descending upon Miller's Meadow tonight for a group ride. There is no official start time, it is just a show and ride at your own pace. The time frame is 6-8pm.

The trail has been 80% mowed and 20% trimmed, so the jungle conditions that existed last week are just in a few small sections.

See you there!

Air Cap was in excellent condition on Father's Day. The high grass that plaques Miller's and the River Trail were absent there. Lee and his group are doing an excellent job of keeping the trail in top condition.

KSS will be hosting a trail work dayat Miller's Meadow on Sunday, June 23th at 8am.

If you want to experience the thrill of watching fellow riders wizz by while you are dripping with sweat,covered with grass clippings and dirt, fighting off insects, sore, tired, hungry and dehydrated, then trail work is for you.

 I am looking for a least 10 individuals. The club has 2 string trimmers and assorted hand tools, but bring what you have if you can. (trimmers, hand axes, loppers).

From Terry P:

I sprayed for two days and covered the complete trail(s) at Fall River over the weekend of June 1st. With the wet late winter and regular rains of early spring the growth exploded at the same rate as the Miller's trail. The sprayed vegetation should be close to a complete burn down by the end of this month and stay open and in good condition through the year. The wet sections of the trail were still soggy over the two days but the area had a fair amount of rain within a day or two of my work days.

Miller's is half mowed at this time with more work to come soon. Thanks to Jerry Bratt for his work yesterday.
