March 2009

  • Please clear the sidewalk for pedestrians. Be friendly to them, say Hello.
  • Please stay out of the way of cars. We are trying to get speed bumps installed on 9th to slow down traffic.
  • Alcohol and Open Fires are illegal. BBQ pits and food are cool.
  • Please don't litter! Pick up your trash. We have at least 5 trash cans.
  • No pulling hair, weapons, or sucker punching! Fight like a man this is TEXAS.
A bit of digging wisdom:
"If you can't play a violin, don't try to build one."

A City bulldozer at your trails generally isn't a welcomed sight. However, we are developing a good relationship with the city. We got a lot of trash hauled off Saturday. In the future; the city plans to donate landscape supplies and possibly a water spigot. We just have to keep the place clean and not piss people off. Help us keep 9th st up and running for another 20 years.

city of austin bulldozer at 9th street bmx march 2009

The city frowns on pointy un-natural objects protruding from the ground. So we had to tear out all the filler that was sticking out of the jumps. That meant the Volcanoes had to erupt!!!

Trying to "sell" a bike at the trails is shady business. Locals shop at Empire and baby blue went out with '08 - no sale.
