Allaire Conditions

Boy it has been a bit, but the crew on this site always gives me inspiration to get out there - that’s why I keep coming back and that is why I love all of you!

It’s been a long time since I have seen this much water at this spot - maybe twenty years - but it sure looked cool today!

I've been riding there almost 10 years (holy cow) and never saw water in the spot til today!

I'm new to Allaire and have been away for awhile, where is this?
I think @Frank and I can drain it with a couple of shovels.

Do you need a tour? We can do the easy stuff to get you acclimated

Most likely, I saw some sort of geriatric man shoveling sand off the trails last year. He seamed very angry and was yelling at people - I wanted to stop and ask what he was doing but he seemed dangerous.

Still haven't been told where this flooding is located?

If you are riding from the Hospital Road lot to Steelman it is on Orange

I was talking to the park rep last weekend and he said the water table is higher than he’s seen in years. They are having issues with water in the buildings at the village. There is a lake right by the W18th ave lot now.

Ohhhhh. Funny. We were talking the other day at TM, on the hike back, that we should put a pipe under the trail to drain that.

Noticed they had pumps running on the Edgar Felix Bike Path near the service entrance and further down by Hospital Road. A lot of areas out by Briz are very wet/muddy. Wish the riders would not make rutted areas worse.

Same rules as usual: if you need to go through a puddle/mud...

Slow down to walking speed (no wake), and go straight through the middle. If you can't do that, walk. If you can't do THAT, turn around and go home.

Rgr, we need no wake zone buoys.
