Home Invasion!!!

Wow! Where to start? An epic weekend after so much hard work. I feel like there was finally payoff. I started digging these trails in 1998. So much has changed since then. Even in the last two years the whole main line was moved to resolve spacing and alignment issues. OG shovel workers include Riley Peetz, Forest Burke, David Lawrence, Dan Wrightington, and myself. The last couple years has just been Dan, David and myself. This spring we had quite a bit of extra help that got things to where they were for this last weekend. Big shout out to everyone who has put a shovel in their hand and helped out! Thank you much. I was somewhat nervous about the weekend and how many people might show up, if anyone would get hurt, if the jumps would hold up all day to that many people, ect., ect. Hence the Home Invasion Jam name. So stoked on how well things went down. Everyone seemed to really have a good time, the whole vibe was chill and some crazy riding went down. Only a couple minor injuries requiring a few stitches. The youngest rider making it through the hip was 12 and the oldest was 45. Quite the age range. 33 years, my age. Weird. Speaking of weird. Vic Murphy was at my house! Wild. Wasn't expecting one of my all time favorite inspirations to show up for this. Anyways check out Jared Souneys blog for some more pics. Check out some web edits of the action here, here, and here. Thanks to everyone who came out and made this such a good time. Special thanks to Life Cycle bike shop and Volume bikes for the product give aways!
