doesn't matter... you can do the full dragon starting from any of the lots.

Canal side was pretty good today. Some puddled up spots in usual problem areas but overall solid conditions for a ride. Should be great tomorrow (at least on the canal side)!

Wait what, really? Alot of water draining and on top of sourlands, I was thinking by Friday if no more rain.

Trails were good yesterday... Until I wiped out hard when I clipped this dumb little tree stump in the tall grass.. going too fast and went off course a little. Thanks to some hunter guy who came out to check up on me. We pulled the weeds to make it more visible. Be safe.

Oh yeah, went right over the bars a few years ago on that bad boy, hit it dead on and burped my tire too. Fortunately you weren't hurt.

hmm - there are a few of those. i have the saw blade for the string trimmer.
added to the list.

actually kind of like those mini stumpies, adds to the 6MR charm.
When I first starting riding, wondered why there are there, now just trail gnomes keeping me company

Just finished a loop. 99.3% hero dirt. Walked around a handful of small puddles. Get it before it rains again!

 

[Molasses]

Any ideas on conditions Saturday morning?

 

[johnnyrides]

Can't imagine it would be good at all if they got anything like what we had in Scotch Plains last night/this morning. It was torrential.

 

[Molasses]

Yeah I just asked my wife- she said it was torrential. I slept through it!

 

[Molasses]

It looks like places farther south like Clayton got spared the deluge

 

[johnnyrides]

Any chance 6M may be decent for a ride tomorrow?

 

[Mathers]

I was planning on riding there tomorrow afternoon too.

 

[rick81721]

Hard to say, it rained all morning yesterday but slow and steady. Might be ok - let us know

Did a recon ride on the canal side - basically a solid 3 assuming no more rain. Mud spots in the usual places. Tar pits still the worst of it:

PS still not a fan of full rigid on trails - tho I guess 25 mm slicks aren't exactly the best tires, especially when it's slippery

Jacques to Nica to orange to 27 is mostly hero with a handful of puddles that are too big to avoid.
