Allaire Conditions

[mike_243]

Well I am in brick and it has been raining more or less all day although light rain.
the sun is not going to dry things up so I would say the morning is not going to be good.
We have a TM session at 8AM and wrap up around noon then we might ride we will have a better view after TM.

Mid to late 90's is as close as I can get to an answer. There are many trails on that map that have been closed, or re-routed. that map was drawn, not computer generated, so it's nothing like the map that was created a few years ago.

Notice there is no "glass" "imba" or "switchbacks" and there is the roller coster

So what has been going on down South? Anyone have a feel for what conditions will be like tomorrow afternoon/evening?

 

[Gnick]

there has been a lot of rain down here in Toms River - supposed to get some sun today so hopefully that will dry it up a bit

Everything is greening up so that means they are drinking.....conditions were good this morning with only a few spots that sounded wet on my tires. It should be awesome by this afternoon.

 

[RobW]

Yeah, no. That didn't happen here. So I will continue to work on my Ford with a PBR after my ride.

You're welcome.

Bask in the low dollar glory.......

i thought it was bud-wei-sur

you can see it on the old map



Actually, it's down trail a bit. It was / is called Beach due to the broken sea shells there. Not sure where that soil originated from, but there are other spots with shells at Allaire.

That map is so cool.

That map is so cool.

Yeah, while Serpentine is not a very accurate illustration it does portray the feel of the trail. Did someone grab a sharpie out of their glove box and draw this on the tailgate of their truck?

I can't believe you guys never saw this map. I sent it to Jason 13 years ago for his map thread. http://www.mtbnj.com/forum/threads/trail-maps.47/

rode allaire this evening. great conditions. it was my first time riding what i think is the "river trail". holy crap - it was a lot of fun. still so much for me to explore.

Major erosion today I'm sure.

 

[Dingo]

3 inches in my rain gauge, here in freehold. Yikes!

I was looking for a Will Smith meme "oh really, you think?"
