Shoutout to all of our AMAZING volunteers that came out and helped us give Corby South some much needed love today! We widened and cleaned out the trailhead, added some arrow signs to help direct traffic from the parking lot to the trailhead, and widened a bunch of corridor. If you missed today but still want to help out, let us know and we’ll get you set up with some equipment! πŸ™ŒπŸΌπŸŒ³πŸͺš

Another successful Adopt-a-Parkway Trash Pickup Day in the books! πŸ§€πŸ—‘οΈπŸŒ±

Today, we covered the Northwest Parkway from Corby Pond to the Northside Complex/Krug Park entrance. While it wasn’t quite as trashy as we expected (a good problem to have 😎), we still removed 10 bags of garbage from one of the most beautiful stretches in town.

Huge thanks to Emily Shook, Tommy Marietta, and Rhonda Jacobs for helping keep our parkway clean, green, and looking sharp. πŸ’š

Special shoutout to Emily for today’s weirdest find... a shellfish hanging out in the rain overflow on the parkway?! πŸ¦πŸ˜‚

Seriously though... can anyone explain that one?

Our next cleanup is scheduled for June 13th! Stay tuned for start time and any rainout updates. The plan is to begin at the Northside Complex and work our way toward Corby Pond.✨

Happy Bike to Work Day! πŸš΄πŸ’Όβ˜€οΈ

🚲To everyone rolling to work today: enjoy the ride, soak up the fresh air, and start your day with a few extra smiles per mile. Wear your helmet, stay visible, follow the rules of the road, and keep the rubber side down.

πŸš—To our friends behind the wheel: thanks for sharing the road! Please slow down, stay alert for cyclists, and give at least 6 feet when passing. A little extra space goes a long way.❀️

See you on the streets and trails!

Reminder! Group Ride tonight 5:30 leaving from Tubes Bike Shop

’Twas the Night Before the Holiday Park Ride πŸŽ„πŸš΄βœ¨

’Twas the night before the group ride, and all through the town,
The bikes sat in silence, all cleaned up and down. 🚲✨
The lights on their chargers, the sweaters laid out, πŸ”‹πŸ§₯
Tomorrow’s big ride had us all buzzing about. 🌟

Excitement is rising, as 6 PM draws near, πŸ˜„πŸŽ
River Bluff Brewery will kick off the cheer! πŸ»πŸŽ„
Then onward to Krug Park, through arches so bright, 🌈🌌
A festive-lit loop on a cold winter night. β„οΈπŸš΄β€β™‚οΈπŸ’‘

Holiday peeps dreaming of rides side by side, 😴🚲
Glow sticks, laughter, and holiday pride. πŸ˜‚βœ¨
With one sleep left before this yearly delight, πŸŒ™πŸŽ„
Happy Holiday Park Ride Eve to all, and to all a good night! πŸ’šπŸŽ‰πŸš΄β€β™€οΈ

From all of us at the Saint Joseph Trail Alliance, Happy Thanksgiving. πŸ¦ƒπŸ‚

This season, we’re taking a moment to reflect on what we’re truly grateful forβ€”and at the top of that list is you.

We’re thankful for every one of our friends, volunteers, trail stewards, riders, runners, hikers, and wanderers. For the familiar faces who’ve been with us for years, and for the brand-new friends we’ve met along the way. You’re the reason our trails feel like home.

Wishing all of you a day filled with warmth, gratitude, and maybe even a little time outside. πŸŒ²πŸš΄β€β™‚οΈπŸ§‘
