Talk:Gruber's Grinder

message: This story was cut out of the main article.  I kept one paragraph in the article.
Paul Gary Gruber was born on December 7, 1959 in the Wolverine State of Michigan.  Once a hard core mountain bike rider and racer, he took second place with Tail Wind Production and the MMBA Points Series.   During 1996-1997, he developed a mountain racing promotion company called Piranha Production. He was instrumental in developing a race venue that included bike races at the Big M and Owasippi trails.  Piranha Productions also had the first downhill racing event at Mt. Holly Ski Resort in Michigan.  During that time, Paul served as Vice-President of the Mt. Holly chapter. 
Paul's major accomplishment was that he was able to, almost single-handedly, map off, design, develop and build a mountain bike path at Hold Ridge Lake State Park, in Southwest Michigan.  The very technical trail measures 15.6 miles long.  It is a tight, twisty, single track making it a challenging adventure for any biker.
When Paul was designing the trail, he got inspiration from other riders and rider's magazines that covered the northwest trails.  He wanted to create a true mountain bike trail, not just a linier trail for leisurely rides.  Much controversy surrounded the building of the trail and he received little support from the local  and state MMBA.  
Despite the lack of support, Paul spent 6-7 days a week from sunup till sundown working with nothing more than a fire fighting tool, a pair of lobbing shears and once a week at most, a chain saw.  The chain saw was not used to clear but to assist in building ramps to go over fallen trees. 
During the early stages, there was an occasional volunteer.  However, when they saw the complexity and size of the project, coupled with the sweltering summer heat, they rapidly disappeared.  It wasn't until about the 12 th mile that Bob came out to lend a hand, probably logging 100-120 hours but leaving before completion to be with his wife as she battled cancer.  She passed on before the trail was completed.
Another volunteer named Mark Sibel was there during the final completion of the last mile.  The last day of working on the trail, Paul was quoted to say, “There should be bands playing and the sound of trumpets,” but there wasn't.  It was a gloomy, gray, fall day with a chill in the air.  Just as Paul and Mark started to leave it began to drizzle.  Not a very fitting end for such a major altruistic achievement.  Paul  Gruber had logged over 1800 man hours in a one year period and spent thousands of dollars building a mountain bike trail which was later named “Gruber's Grinder,”  for the many cuts, broken bones and lost riders.  “Gruber's Grinder” is one man's dream and a memorial that will last years after he is gone.
If you feel any of it belongs (I'm referring to WP:V, WP:NPOV, and WP:PEACOCK) then feel free to add it back in.  ~a (user • talk • contribs) 02:07, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Orroroo, South Australia

message: I have moved back the article on Orroroo to Orroroo, South Australia.  This is in line with the WikiProject guidelines at WP:AUSTPLACES.  If any editor wishes to change these guidelines , they will need to raise the issue there, but are unlikely to find much support.  The naming convention for Australian towns has been discussed several times and the current consensus is that a standard naming protocol of "Town, State" with "Town" being either a redirect or disambiguation page would be consistent and lead to fewer duplicate articles.--Mattinbgn/ talk 02:29, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

That source that User:Deb supplied seems to be out of step with most others, so I'm doubting its veracity. --  Jack of Oz [pleasantries] 22:25, 19 June 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: I notice that his obituary in the L A Times says "His widow gave his age as 66. Most authorities list it as 64." This suggests there may have been doubt about his year of birth as well as the date. I'm sure you know that, in countries where the registration of births has historically been poor, it's common to give the date of birth as 1st January (like they do with racehorses). So I'm doubting we'll ever get to the truth. The picture of his grave on Findagrave is too small for me to see whether there is a DOB on it. The particular source I used dates from 1978, so at least we know it wasn't copied from Wikipedia, but we can't be sure about any of the others. We could just change the DOB to "1 or 2 January" with an appropriate note. Deb (talk) 07:23, 20 June 2020 (UTC)
