We talk about Greer Ranch and the latest developments there and the direction of where the process is going and who are the key players are that we all needing to work with in order save these amazing world class trails.  

This Podcast was built to help get us all on the same page so we can work together as one huge voice to get these trails saved and sanctioned in the years to come.  

Also here are the talking points that we can address for the upcoming City Council Meeting on May 12th: 

Brief Background of Advocacy at Greer Ranch:

The Greer Ranch trail network has organically evolved to become one of the most popular mountain biking destinations in Southern California, attracting hundreds of riders weekly.  However, most of the area is privately owned and a portion of the property is slated to become houses soon. In spite of these trails being unsanctioned, local advocates including representatives from the Inland Valley Mountain Bike Association have worked with the local jurisdictions and agencies including the RCA (Western Riverside County Regional Conservation Authority) for years to work collaboratively on a solution. The relationships built through these advocacy efforts have worked to develop an understanding about the need for the progressive type of trails found at Greer and how they might be saved and be sustainable far into the future.

NOW is the time to add your voice as a trail advocate!

Joey Mashchak is a local Murrieta rider who is quickly entered the race scene taking podiums in only his first year of riding.  As you will learn from Joey many of his skills come from a growth mindset mentality.  After having some dangerous spills as a pro moto rider and battline some concussions depression he found "growth mindset" to help him get out of the slump of depression, set goals and smash them.  Since that time he has learned so much about self help and development and it really shows in his ability to ride a Mountain Bike and now Joey is in the position to help other riders become a better version of themselves.   Hope you enjoy this episode with Joey Maschak from SmoothMTB.
