Important Reminders about the Black Rock Trails!
Hey there all; BRMBA wants to say THANK YOU to all trail users. Things have been looking better in regards to people going to fast through the camp so thank you to everyone for slowing down and reminding everyone to be good neighbors to the camp.
Keep up the good work and keep you speed down!
NOW we ask everyone to be a good neighbor again, but in a different area. With summer here and with the road now being dry and extremely dusty we ask that the biking community set a good example for ALL drivers using the Black Rock road.
Please slow down through the section of road just after the pavement where the homes are (or just before the pavement as you are heading back into town).
BE A GOOD NEIGHBOR and slow down so that you lessen the dust as much as possible past these homes. I’m sure you would appreciate drivers doing the same for you if you lived in one of these homes! The couple minutes in additional drive time will earn you good trail karma (just like trail building does).
When you see a home please slow down!
Local home owners will appreciate it!
Still please remember the normal Black Rock rules:
1. Staying on the road that leads up to the trails (please don’t trespass on the camp property; don’t drive past the camp entrance do not park in the camp field)!
2. NEVER speed down the road through the camp at the end of the day! The MAX speed is 15 MPH; better yet go slower, enjoy the view and wave and say hi to the campers!
3. Be courteous when parked, don’t change in direct view of passers by; remember there is no alcohol allowed in the parking lot (it’s a county road and it’s not legal). Please remember this is a church camp and lots of kids are coming and going, they don’t need to see your bare backside! Watch your language and please no loud music!
4. Leash your dog while one the camp property; DON’T let you dog use the camp field as a bathroom (kids play here and hey you don’t like falling in dog do-do and you don’t want that on your shoes!).
PLEASE if it’s your first time to BR, take time to read the rules; If you are a REGULAR at BR then please be vocal, remind people when they aren’t following the rules (be nice, but SPEAK up!). IT IS UP TO ALL OF US USERS TO MAKE SURE EVERYONE FOLLOWS THE RULES. All we need is that one person to ruin it all for all of us!
