FKNA right! Trail building is how I keep the lights on.Pretty cool someone donates $2.5M for trail building.
Thanks to $2.5 million from an anonymous donor, a world-class MTB trail system is coming to Western Massachusetts.

The new Shaker Ridge Trails in Western Massachusetts will boast 25-30 miles of singletrack in Phase 1, with the grand vision calling for 60-100 miles of world-class mountain bike trails.
Awesome! We need more pics from your jobs
Temperature regulation is more difficult on the bike, at least compared to resort skiing and riding. Biking is more akin to up-hilling. After 25 years of mountain biking, I still haven't quite mastered an on bike layering system for when it dips below 25. Wind layers trap moisture and inevitably lead to clammy discomfort. No wind layer and you can feel the cold air cutting through your layers onto your skin. Wool has been the best solution I've found yet. A 250 weight merino wool base layer paired with a slightly heavier ragg wool sweater on top is the best compromise I've found so far. Hands are a whole different issue, metal brake levers transfer all that cold directly to your braking fingers.
