Jesse and Lori (the trail care crew) are coming to Fort Wayne next weekend for a three day visit. This is a great opportunity for riders local to Northeast Indiana. I went to a Trail Building School session last year in Middlebury and learned a lot about how to combat the kind of erosion and water problems that can occur on trails like Franke's.
