Heads up! There is a Bees nest on Twizzler. We are pretty certain of the general area it’s in, but we haven’t ACTUALLY gotten eyes on it. We’ll keep looking for it. But in the mean time, **especially** if you’re allergic, either skip Twizzler or ride it REALLY fast!

Folks are getting stung. So ride with as much caution/speed/as YOU deem fit.

We’ve had some questions already coming in about what SMBA’s role will be with Gurney & Rush Pond.

We are NOT replacing the work that has traditionally been done by Wilderness Property Management. We will be taking care of smaller jobs that will let WPM focus on bigger jobs like the one they just did revitalizing Tango & E-20. Zach and his crew have been turning out great work all over Warren County and we can’t wait to see what he comes up with next!

This will also allow a proper channel for people to donate to and support the trails as SMBA is an official non-profit. There will be more information coming in the next weeks and months. But rest assured, we have no intention of changing the established and loved personalities of these great networks. We want to see them continue to thrive and be enjoyed.

We’re really excited about this merger, we know the Queensbury crew is too and we hope you riders are as well! See you on the trails.

SMBA has increased the size of its footprint quite a bit! We are so excited to announce our stewardship agreement with the Queensbury Parks and Recreation to maintain the trails at Gurney Lane and Gurney South (Rush Pond)! With this agreement, SMBA adds 13+ miles of trails that include flowy singletrack and berms as well as some old school roots and rocks.

For years, Scott Wheeler, Eric Lendrum, and Tom Williams have been working with their crew to maintain the trails. By joining with SMBA, the Queensbury chapter will not only have access to our amazing volunteers but will soon have the ability to accept donations. Keep an eye out for new Kiosks, Signage, and QR codes at Gurney & Rush Pond. Queensbury riders have been asking for years how they can help out and support the trails, and now there will be a way. SMBA is looking forward to building on our relationship with Rick’s Bike Shop and being more directly involved with long-standing events like Churney Gurney and Fat Tire Bike Day.

We are especially grateful to Parks and Recreation former director Steve Lovering and current director Jennifer France for their vision and continued support for mountain bike trails as an important recreational resource for residents, families, and visitors. This commitment strengthens the community, supports outdoor access, and helps ensure these trails can be enjoyed for generations to come.

Thanks to everyone who gets off their bike and moves a branch or at least lets us know where the big ones are!

TOMORROW!!

Saturday, August 1st. We will be replacing the bridge on Monkey. We could definitely use any extra hands that are willing to help. The hardest part will be getting the wood back to the build site. So even if you can “only” help for a short time, every board carried is one less trip we need to make, and more time that can be spent making the new bridge.

Meet at the DEC lot at 9am. Expect to tailgate after 🍻

Thanks in advance!
