This past weekend, Leslie and Chris Kehmeier from the IMBA trail crew made a stop in Flagstaff to work with the Flagstaff Biking Organization. After a day of building trails with the FBO, Leslie and Chris sat down to talk about gravity riding and what can be done to accommodate the future growth of this segment of riders. Read more to see an excerpt of their report.

The Subaru/IMBA Trail Care Crew, Chris and Leslie Kehmeier, will be presenting a class on sustainable trail building and then working with us on the ground at building some sustainable trail. This is a great opportunity to learn all about how trails go from concept to a ride; there’s a lot more to it than you might think! Meet at 8:30 am at the Flagstaff District Ranger Station on Highway 89 across from the Flagstaff Mall.
