031 - Trail Maintenance And Why We Should Help with John Howard - a podcast by Gareth Beckett

Ever wondered why your trail centres are always in great shape? Well it's because of people like John and a team of volunteers lending a helping hand, taking time out of their day to help maintain their local trails. Have you ever thought of helping out yourself?

Well on todays episode number Thirty One, we talk with John about how you can do that, how the whole process works and why your help is needed to keep the trails maintained the way we have grown to love. We talk about everything from John's role as a Trail Ranger to rider safety to what repairs are required the most.

This is a great episode were we get to find out what really goes into keeping our trails open all year round and what we as users can do to help. It doesn't take a lot of effort or a great deal of our time to help out so we can enjoy this thing called mountain biking 365 days a year.

Please listen to the show, get involved and help out your local trail centre!
