ALL I AM: AARON BAKER

13 Years after a profoundly life altering accident, Aaron Baker lives a life that few medical professionals would ever have believed possible. In 13 years Aaron has progressed - with the help of loving family and his 'F1 Team' - beyond normality, to a place where achieving the seemingly impossible is something he does on a fairly regular basis. In a developed world that pulls us every second of the day in a thousand different directions, Aaron's focus and determination to be all he can serves, perhaps, as a valuable lesson in how not to allow oneself to be boxed in by the world around you.

REACH THE BEACH 2012
Saturday May 19

We are drawn to Oregon for its beauty. We enjoy spending time outdoors and exploring what our state has to offer. And for those of us who also love riding our bikes, Reach the Beach is a fabulous way to ge...t out and experience Oregon's countryside. Reach the Beach is the major fundraiser for the American Lung Association in Oregon, and every pedal stroke helps promote clean Oregon air and healthy Oregon lungs. You'll meander along quiet, gorgeous rural roads on your way to the spectacular beach party in Pacific City.

Over 300 volunteers are needed to make this ride as wildly successful as it is. Invite your friends to join you as a volunteer, and you can all get together at the finish line for the complimentary (and tasty!) dinner that is served on the huge back patio of the Pelican Pub, overlooking Haystack Rock in Pacific City. There are volunteer positions available in Portland and at the finish line, as well as in the quaint hamlets along the course. Consider this an excellent opportunity to explore some of the lesser-known gems of the Oregon countryside.

If you are planning to ride Reach the Beach, sign up early as this ride is capped at 3,000 riders and is anticipated to sell out again this year. The discounted registration rate ends on April 8.

STUB STEWART STATE PARK FREERIDE AREA: BUILD DAY
Saturday 9:00am to 2:00pm

The trail gnomes are doing it again! With only 2 months left to open up the Freeride Area, we need solid volunteer turnouts more now than ever.

Join us for a great day of building Freeride Trails out in Stub Stewart State Park! Your involvement (as volunteers) is the...
key to opening up this area by Spring 2012.

Mid-Season tasks may include the following;
-Locate and flag "push-up and gator corridor" (small team)
-Clear "push-up and gator corridor" (Chainsaws and ST240) (small team)
-Finish work on the "push-up and gator corridor" (whole group)
-Continue transporting dirt to needed areas
-Continue digging trail tread for both trails
-Continue Milling lumber
-Begin assembling wooden features (Drops, Ladders, cow-catchers, etc.)

Let's meet at the Welcome Center at 8:45 and head towards the Freeride area at 9:05. Please Dress appropriately for the conditions and don't forget to bring enough water/food for the day. The park has plenty of tools but feel free to bring your favorite. Feel free to bring your bike and gear for quality control ;).

We hope to see you there.

PS: Don't forget about our "ProR8" volunteer appreciation program. Attend 8 build days this season and you are eligible for X-Fusion Shox's PRODEAL Sponsorship Program. What's better than building the trails you ride, then riding them on X-Fusion's exceptional suspension products? Big thanks to John V @ X-Fusion.

HOOD RIVER AREA TRAIL STEWARDS UPDATE
March 31st Work Party.                        info from www.hrats.org

Hey everyone, we are scaling-back the work party for the 31st. We had been planning to work on Whoopdee and a few trails in Post Canyon, but the weather and the salvage logging has not gone our way. So the only viable option will be to clear “Lower Spaghetti Factory” from Blue Car up to Post Canyon Rd.

If you are interested in helping clear some trail, please meet us at the new location of 10 Speed Coffee/Dirty Fingers Bike Shop at 1235 State St. (corner of 13th and State) at 8:30 on Saturday morning. We will head-out from there. 

It shouldn’t take more than a few hours. We can head back to DF afterwards and enjoy their tasty beer selection. 

Please bring a helmet, eye protection and some gloves. We should have tools, but please bring some of your own just in case.

24th ANNUAL MUDSLINGER MOUNTAIN BIKE RACE
I find it hard to believe that the Mudslinger is 24 years young. My first time was in  1990 watching the event and then co-directing in 1991, well 21 years later we are at it again. The race is now properly located early in April to provide you with the best experience with both tire selection and to shake off those cobwebs and realize that the season is upon you. From Beginners to Pro’s you are welcome with our Family at this NW Classic. The race is only 17 miles west of Corvallis or 2 hrs from PDX.
Entry opens 12/31 and register early and get a Specialized Purist Water Bottle. Also if you have never and I mean never done the Mudslinger, well $5.00 off for you for coming to experience the fun and thrills of the Mudslinger. 

For all of the info go to mudslingerevents.com

HOOD RIVER AREA TRAIL STEWARDS (HRATS)

POST CANYON TRAIL UPDATE

 

OK folks. Every 25-35 years this bad news comes to us mountain bikers. As you all know the devastating storm of Jan 21st 2012 will go down as the most destructive ice storm to hit Post Canyon. As of today, our precious trail system that we all adore has some LONGTIME CLOSURES. Signs will be going up as "quickly as they are ma...de" for those that actually make it to a trail head.

CLOSED PENDING A TIMBER SALVAGE/SALE AS OF FEB 28 2012
Seven Streams (Hardest Hit!)
Mobius Strip
Spaggetti Factory
Frankenstein
Mitchell Ridge
Blue Car
Baby GP
Charlies Trail
Lower GP
Glory Daze
Blade Runner
8 Track Basement
Drop Out
FMX

Now- Family Man is the staging area for the next two-three weeks for the log salvage operation currently in effect. PLEASE stay out of the area during 7am and 4pm to avoid their skidders, trucks and the roaming sawmen. After 4am the only thing rideable is Middle School- Loop back up to Family Man and the Pumptrack. No word yet if 'The Boot' is open for a XC loop. I'd advise all to be EXTREMELY cautious. Lots of branches are still stuck on other branches and have yet to hit the ground in certain areas. Keep an eye on your loved ones while in the area.

Hospital Hill is also undergoing a TIMBER SALE and SDS Lumber is asking for all users groups to spread the word to stay clear of that trail.

No word on the rebuilt Whoops Trail.

If you have to ride your bike- check out the Eagle Caves Trails in The Dalles, they need to be ridden in for the upcoming Gorge Fat Tire Festival. (
www.gorgefattire.com)

Got a question for us? On Twitter just #hrats and I'll get it. I'll pass the news as I get it. But for now- we have to mourn and envision Seven Streams-Mobius Strip and the oldest freeride trail in Oregon 'Frankenstein' closed and clear cutted which will change that area visually forever!

GIANTS OF DIRT 3

 

THE FINAL CHAPTER IN THE GIANTS OF DIRT PROJECT CELEBRATES THE LIFE AND DEDICATION OF DANE SEARLS, 1988-2011.

December 20, 2011 -- The final video release for Professional Freestyle BMX rider Dane Searls sees him successfully ride the biggest dirt jumps in history, clearing distances up to 60 feet (18 metres) on a BMX.

The Giants of Dirt Project began in 2010 when Dane Searls brought the idea to Unit Clothing, his sponsor. Over the next 12 months, together they built and tested the line of jumps in Boonah, (west of the Gold Coast, Queensland) on the farm of fellow Unit rider Freestyle Motocross Pro Matt Schubring. Sheer determination saw Dane push through many painful crashes and set backs, including the devastating Queensland floods of 2010. Dane finally completed his life long goal in November 2011, by riding and pulling tricks through the entire set of jumps. Giants of Dirt 3 is the realization of Dane's dream.

A custom built drop in ramp was constructed and the final jump in the set of four jumps measures 60 feet (18 metres) from dirt take off to dirt landing.

Two days after fulfilling his dream, Dane was involved in an accident and suffered critical head injuries, placing him in a coma for five days. Dane passed away on November 25, 2011 in hospital due to injuries sustained.

His death sent shock waves through the BMX community and he will be long remembered as an amazingly kind person and as a professional athlete who pushed the boundaries of the sport of BMX.

R.I.P "The King Of BMX Dirt" Dane Searls.

 
 
 
 
 
NORTHWEST TRAIL ALLIANCE DECEMBER NEWSLETTER
A Look Back, A Look Forward
by Board President, Tom Archer

t's been a busy year for NWTA. Looking back there are many successes to celebrate - A successful Portland Trail Fest in April, ownership of the ST240 and launch of the Trail development Partnership Program, continued expansion and improvement of the Sandy Ridge system, new trail on the ground at Stub Stewart State Park and Cascade Locks and two, count 'em, two new bike parks on the ground at Eichler and Ventura Parks. No matter what your favorite style of riding, riding options continue to expand and improve.

And more exciting projects are in the works. Next year we'll continue to add trail mileage at Stub, Cascade Locks, Sandy Ridge and possibly at Falls Creek trail in Washington. A new bike park will be constructed in Portland at the New Columbia housing project. A new shuttleable downhill trail, Thrillium, will come on line at Larch Mountain, WA. - and barring a legal challenge - work will begin on the Timberline bike park next summer.
Needless to say, all these projects take time and resources to pull off, and we have some incredibly dedicated and talented members and supporters to thank for these successes. The fact that we are able to pull all these things off with volunteers is nothing short of incredible.

A few of our board members attended the Pacific Northwest IMBA regional summit in October. A great opportunity to talk with IMBA staff and other folks working to preserve and enhance biking opportunities in their own backyards. A great stoke, and confirmation that we are on the right track in many ways.

But there's more to do, and this is where we rely on you, our members and supporters, to help us further our mission. We've been very fortunate with the level of participation over the past few years and we're confident that it will grow even stronger in 2012 and beyond.

As we do every year, we'll hold board elections at our general meeting in January. I encourage you to attend and cast your vote. Beyond that, please consider getting involved in one of the many fun and rewarding projects we have in store for 2012.

Ride On,

Tom Archer
Board President

WORST DAY OF THE YEAR RIDE 2012

Neither rain, nor sleet, nor ice, nor snow can squelch the spirit of Portland's resilient cyclists, and the Worst Day of the Year Ride is pedaling proof. The ride is now in its 11th year as Portland's favorite wacky winter ride. People flock to Portland from all over the USA to dress in costume and get a little taste of wintertime whimsy on two wheels.

The ride has gr
own from a mere 250 riders the first year to a record number of 3,700 riders in 2011, all in support of the Community Cycling Center. The ride is capped at 4,000 riders and is likely to sell out. Register early to ensure your spot among hoards of costumed and bundled up riders circling the city in search of belly-warming rest stop treats and a finish line feast of homemade soups and bread at the Lucky Lab Brew Pub.
