Subaru/IMBA Trail Care Crew Gives Roman Nose a Facelift

Fifty land managers, representing each of Oklahoma's State Parks, welcome IMBA to Roman Nose State Park.
Oklahoma State Parks Director John Ressmeyer, an active mountain biker, show his coworkers how its done.
After a classroom session on trail design, the State Parks folks work on a reroute around an eroded section of trail.
An important step in rerouting a trail is reclaiming the old route with native vegetation.
The finished product. Can you find the old trail? Thanks to Charles Duke, IMBA state representative and Walt Brittain, Oklahoma Earthbike Fellowship President, for organizing the visit.
Your Oklahoma State Parks land managers. It is great to have such a successful partnership between these folks and the mountain bike community.

The Subaru/IMBA Trail Care Crew conducted a Trailbuilding School in March for representatives of all 50 Oklahoma State Parks. The two-day event was an opportunity to share ideas with the very people who make decisions about mountain bike access in Oklahoma. The Crew and land managers teamed to build some amazing contour trail, craft a rolling crown switchback and ride some prime singletrack. Thanks to Charles Duke, IMBA state representative and Walt Brittain, Oklahoma Earthbike Fellowship President, for organizing the visit.
