Three couches, a sink, 20 bags of trash
Here’s a note from Damon at Pacifica Free Ride, stolen from the Ride Monkey Forum:
“Thanks to everyone that showed up at Carlmont today. We had over a dozen people show up to help. Specifically, thanks to Andres, Krishna, Bobby, Dirtbag Matt, Adam, Daniel, Gideon, Passion Trails Patty, and geez there were others, and thank you all.
“We pulled out three couches, a sink, a piece of car, and five super-stuffed large trash bags. Pictures to follow.
“Also, thanks to Charles and Patty from Passion Trails for letting us use their dumpster. Patty was out there at 10am and stayed until late, so double reps to her.
“Thanks to the SF DirtLab crew and San Jose Greg for letting us use your trucks. You guys rock!
“We installed a garbage can at the tree by the Math Line. There’s extra bags at the bottom of the can. If you want to earn some karma, you can drop full bags off at the Passion Trails dumpster.
“Please respect the garbage can! Use it for trash, and we’ll make sure it gets emptied on a regular basis.
“After the clean up, we had a good ride session. It was awesome to see so many people of different ages and skill levels stepping it up.
“Remember, Carlmont is one of a kind! There is no place in the Bay Area that has pro-level riding like Carlmont. If Carlmont gets closed, we are screwed. Keeping it clean of trash is one easy way to keep it open.
“Thanks again to everyone that showed up. See you on the trails.”
