This week's Post of the Week winner didn't even have to post to YourMTB.com to win! It's mtbmike, a.k.a. Mike Barrow, a.k.a. president of the Boulder Mountainbike Alliance (Colorado). Why did he win? For this heartwarming photo (posted by YourMTB.com publisher Steve Outing) of Mike ripping up a "No Bikes Allowed" sign on Boulder's Flatirons Vista/Dowdy Draw trail. Nope, he's not vandalizing; Mike got the honor after a trail work day, after which the trail was opened to bikes for the first time. Mike and his BMA colleagues and volunteers are a big part of the reason that the trail restriction was lifted. And the group has been having success getting more new trails for mountain bikers in Boulder County. We think Mike deserves an award, so he gets Post of the Week, which includes a great gift pack from Pixie Mate (which just happens to be a Boulder-based company). What have you done to deserve Post of the Week? Post a great picture, blog or video, and next week you could win! |

Pixie Mate Post of the Week - Trail champion!
A trail opens to bikes in Boulder!
|
By Steve Outing on 10/23/2007  I grabbed this photo from the Boulder Mountainbike Alliance. Wanted to share it because it's historic for historically MTB-unfriendly Boulder. That's BMA president Mike Barrow ripping up a "No Bikes" sign that was at the trailhead for Dowdy Draw/Flatirons Vista. A group of volunteers did a trail work day recently, and after they were done the trail was open to mountain bikes. |
