Just saw on strava
@jdog rode the full loop. Must be ok - thinking I'll hit it tomorrow
The park is in pretty fine shape. I literally hadn’t ridden a full loop in months as I’ve been digging around Jacques for months.
(The attached pic I just took this am, so that an indication that it’s not too bad)
The work we’ve done on the white trail is paying off and that part of the park really is becoming better and better to ride after a few days of rain.
The blue trail is pretty bombed out with more mud holes than I’d like to see. Clearly it’s better ridden a LOT when wet this spring and I haven’t worked on it at all. It’s sad to see mud holes in spots where they’ve never popped up before, but with such a wet spring it’s pretty inevitable. Id encourage anyone who’d care to to carry a mini shovel in their pack and work some of thes holes.
This one looks good:
If you do nothing other than dig a drain trench for these pits to drain out and fill the ruts with dirt, that goes a long way.
That and it’s wildly overgrown in a lot of spots. I hope to run the brush hog through the whole thing this week.
*please start riding with a mini silky saw or hand pruners. Take at least ten stops per lop and cut some shit back. It’s gotten crazy and I’d rather spend time moving dirt, but it needs a trim.
I’m also going to make a push to see more people treating their Gear with Permethrin. My buddy works as a plant/bug scientist and he says we all should be using it and that it is safe.
So yeah.. hit it and JOIN JORBA.ORG NOW
This pays for trail tools, bridges, insurance etc. it’s a small price to pay
