Final revision for the Tqalu signs.

Thanks again to Tony Boyd for the modern native digital artwork. And thanks again for Center Cycle for the generous donation to help make these signs a reality.

These signs have probably been the most challenging aspect to the design of the trail. i'm very happy i was able to keep pursuing them to this point. Always seemingly close to getting buried for whatever reason, i'll gladly thank those who assisted me in the process that has lasted for a year.

i'm very happy and hopeful these signs will help and enhance the community with education, and information. As well celebrating and representing artistically the appreciation mountain bikers have of not only our local community, but of our local lands. Illuminating this to others as well as providing non-riders a bridge of understanding and insight of what many of us are about, and what we're doing.

Shown signs are not full resolution, and any further feedback will likely not result in any further changes.:)

Actually i don't know her. She was on an Alston ride for the club a few years back, i rode in from the other side of the mountains on a solo ride. Met the group at the lake, i asked her if i could photo her, and the shot turned out really nice.

For the key i took a close look at some shots i took in Galbraith, and Klone Peak, but they wouldn't have worked as well as this photo.
