are these trails near oakton and river road? If so I was there when that place started back about 6 years ago... let me know!

I know of some trails in wheeling but haven't hit them on the fiddy yet.

Robbie Curtis, Brian Coleman, Richie (Crazy old guy) I started riding there about 7 years ago. I worked at scrap with Jimmy Walker, Casey Burke, Koji Kraft, Orlando, Jay.... I rode there everyday for about 4 years. Started actually working there when we rebuilt it with the wooden rhythm and the 6' mini with spine.

so there's jumps again by river/oakton where it's kinda sandy? I built there for 2 summers and got sick of it getting plowed, so we moved to a different spot.

Have you been out to brian colemans trails in wheeling? They're pretty good, once weather breaks and things get kickin' again I'll be hitting those up
