• Hats off to these wonderful lads for putting t • Hats off to these wonderful lads for putting together the first ever Lake Hickory Short Track Race Series! It takes a lot of planning & behind the scenes work to put on race events and we’re super humbled that @nccyclocross has generously donated $$$ dollars for the Alliance to put into the Lake Hickory Trails fund. These local trails receive a lot of activity each year & this donation will be put to good use for future maintenance. • Thank you, thank you #nccyclocross for giving back!!! #lakehickorytrails #trailfund #trailsclosetohome #ridenwnc

That said, please join us this Saturday, March 5th at 9:00AM for our bi-annual workday at Zacks Fork Mountain Bike Trail. We’ll be focusing on clearing drains, de-berming and vegetation. ⚒️ tools will be provided. Bring sturdy, closed-toe work boots, gloves, water, and a snack. We’ll work until noon, stop for lunch and then those who can hangout and ride will rally around 1:00pm. Come on out and see what we have planned for some new trail that will be under construction in the very near future. As always, we appreciate those who support our local trails with their volunteer efforts. #ridenwnc #trailparty #volunteer #lenoir #zacksforktrail #traillove
