VVV (Victor Velo Video)

Quick Update

We had a great turnout on Sunday and accomplished a ton. Monday was mostly fine-tuning but a major upgrade happened on the dirt jump start hill thanks to the Victor Public Works crew and their shiny front loader.

Our new bike park rocks!

Victor Bike Park Day 2

Where once there was nothing now sits a Bike Park! We made huge gains yesterday and accomplished more than I thought was possible in one day. I'll get photos up soon, but first a big thanks to the following people who really stepped up yesterday:
Pete Linville and Colin - GreenNeck Excavating
Scott Golden - Victor Pubilc Works
Harlan and Clay - Teton Freedom Riders
Hondo Miller - High Range Designs
Dave Byers - Athlete 360
Jay Hoots - Running the Mini Ex until WAY past dark!
Dave Bergart - Victor City Councilman
Amy, Taylor, Kenny - the Future of the Victor Bike Park.

OK, no time for blogging, there's work to be done!

Day 1 of Givn'r

Every delay possibly was thrown at us yesterday by the airlines but no big surprise there right!? The funniest though was the broken gas main in jackson on the way back from the airport! Classic! So we didn't get going until 7pm, but that didn't stop Jay Hoots and Councilman Johnny Ziem from Givn'r! We moved almost all the intial dirt into place after the mad scientist (Jay Hoots) quickly spray painted the layout.
We'll be at it again today starting at 8am.

Travel Delay

Jay Hoots' flight was delayed so it looks like we will not be on sight tonight until 5:30pm. Hope to still get a bunch done tonight though...

Grant Award

We just found out that we were awarded a Grant of $1000 from the Community Foundation of Teton Valley for the Victor Bike Park!

Victor Bike Park Construction Begins Thursday!
