PGMTB Club Trail Care Day

PGMTB Club Trail Care event
.
Meet 8:45am at Goldsworthy Lane car park (The Tank).
.
Focusing on Cadel's Loop, clearing the trail of debris
.
Typically we rake the trail clear of debris, ensuring water sheets across the trail by creating drainage points as well as cutting back vegetation that impedes users on the trail or blocks 'sight-lines' of corners...
.
There will be a quick safety briefing & overview on what, where, how & when to rake and cut.
.
If enough volunteers, we’ll split into two teams
.
Tools to bring (if you have them):

- plastic (not metal!) rake - although the Club has a few now!
- secateurs or small pruning saw
- no digging tools!
- Club will provide blower for clearing trails & pole pruner for any cutting requirements
.
Personal gear:

- hand protection: gardening-type gloves
- eye protection: sunglasses or safety googles
- foot protection: closed shoes or boots
- leg protection: long pants if using a line trimmer or brush cutter
- radiation protection: hat & sunscreen (well, at least the hat…)
- dehydration protection: backpack bladder is a good way to carry water or bottle/s

- rain protection: raincoat
.
See you there!
