    If you want to Ride Kowen/Sparrow now is the time

    Don't Panic OK - So in all likelihood the trees at Sparrow have a good while yet. I do not believe that there is any clear and present danger. I have a very close working relationship with the Minister and his office and have been working very closely with Des Kowalski to highlight the...

    Majura Pines Trail Building Thread

    First round of consultation was run in February this year. The draft master plan is pretty much complete and will be released for further comment. From the Bruce thread someone asked for the trail not to be 'old lady trails' or some such. The plan is for variety including easier trails to...
