Preparing the Trails

Ivanildo rigged up a way to water the dusty bike trails in preparation for the race. This is the trailer that used to pull the airplane out of the water and put it in the hangar. It serves in a humbler capacity now, but it is still serving. Ivanildo told me it takes 8 minutes to get to the river, and about 20 to load up. Quite a bit of the water gets all the way back to the trail.  It worked well since the city water truck was unavailable (we tried to get them to donate a couple of loads) and the newly made trails had a couple inches of powdery dust. The water helped pack the trails, making a faster racing surface.
