yep, well, over-publicising the place, be careful what you wish for...
however, promoting the park sure good way to grow the club.
hey people who buy cheap lite systems just waste their money & will just cause
more crashes. next year this time the dicsussion about the Collonade will be
about how there's so many riders for such a small trail system; column
collisions, backups, agressive riders, "snakes"/intimidating locals, etc. thats
ok because i see the community value in this place & being mjr PR tool for BBTC.
don't get me wrong, mega-kudos to all the builders - too bad about the lack of
parking nearby or anywhere in the vicinity, huh?
