We are starting the outdoor rebuild, this coming weekend. First up will be tearing down the old track. We will start that this coming weekend. We need some help removing some chain link fencing behind turns 1 and 3. If anyone has any tools to cut chain link fencing and can help remove the fence on Sat 3/31 or Sun 4/1. Let me know

Jason,
Harbor Frieght has these for $9 bucks.

Make sure you snip the ties instead of the link so you can re-use the original length of the fence. If you need to pull the posts, chain up to a truck & I will bet they will pull right out of the ground.

Jason, I don't have fence cutters, but should be able to come out and help take stuff down. Let me know what time you need help there and I'll see if I can arrange things so I can help.

I have some industrial bolt cutters that will make easy work of the fence clips. I. Am racing a triathlon this saturday am but if someone can swing by my house on their way to rad you can use them.

Um yeah, I am a bit slow on the up-take sometimes. :mrgreen: That's cool, now maybe I can I I Street and help at RC.
Wrist is improving. Maybe sketchy on the fences, but I'd like to help where I can.

Chris I like that idea we were thinking of going to the dunes but with sundays weather prediction. Maybe a day with the bmx family and track rebuild sound like a great alternative

Phase 1 of track rebuild is done. Next up phase 2 putting down new jumps. Then phase 3, the hand work.

What happened to all the volunteers to help with the fencing? Ended up just Wes Shephard, Brayden Hatch and myself working on the fencing?
