Even know we are still working on 357 trail and it is not open yet some of us crazy guys, Shane, Hector, and I couldn't wait any longer to try out the course for Masons Midsummer Meltdown. So we went out and road it in full for the first time tonight including the unfinished trail. (Now I have motivation to get 357 done)

Here is a little preview of the course we have in store for you. As we have experienced before the hills of Wyco and GPS do not get along so the GPS tracks are not perfect.

the course:
8.2 miles per lap wheel measured (gps says 7 its wrong)
1200+ feet of climbing per lap
1200+ feet of descending per lap
Guesstimate on lap times Cat 1 35-40 minutes Cat 2 40-45 minutes Cat 3 45-60 minutes



I will have a nice cue sheet referencing Wyco's intersection numbering system done soon for your preriding enjoyment. Much better for finding your way and getting a proper preride than This GPS map.

Welcome Epic Bike and Sport

The Trail Masons would like to welcome the wonderful people at Epic Bike and Sport to the role of a presenting sponsor for the the Masons Midsummer Meltdown. Scott, Mark, Garet and the rest of the crew have been taking care of the riding community from their shop at 6000 NW 63rd Terrace for over 6 years. They have also supported the Trail Masons efforts at Wyandotte County lake in the past by participating in trail workdays and social rides. Tom Luke, a member of their race team, puts down more peddle time at Wyco than I think I do and also loves every minute of it.
