Group Ride 11/18 Wildcat

[Stef]

We'll have to do recon on Saturday and then make a decision. It was pretty wet in spots last night, so if we get 4-5 inches of snow and then a bunch of rain tomorrow, it might be too sloppy. Wildcat drains very well though, so I plan to remain optimistic.

You just want brownies to go w your vat of beer

Yeah that's a really good idea, you should make brownies for the recon ride in case the real ride is canceled. You're so smart!

Sure, if the trails suck you can watch me get drunk in the parking lot instead.

 

[Dajerseyrat]

you've got all the winter riding gear info now, so you should be good regardless of snow.

But...but...Tires...

I watched a few videos of this trail system, it seems pretty cool. I'm gonna stop to take lots of pictures like a tourist..

It looks more like 6-8” in my yard. The ridge usually gets a little more. This may be fat bike lead out to get some snow pack. Saturday recon def needed. On the bright side, I wont have to get the leaf blower out

 

[pooriggy]

Too early?

 

[graveyardman67]

Yes too early!

This isn’t happening is it? I’m in Motown and there is still plenty of snow on the ground.

@JimN and @graveyardman67 Are doing a recon today to check on trails. I'm doubtful that the trails will be rideable, however they will chime in to make the official call.
Please check back later. Thx

@pooriggy please tag me with official call so I can update FB event

 

[Norm]

@pooriggy feel free to tag me as well. I will ignore it but more notifications make me feel important.

OH Beer>Trail Conditions

 

[graveyardman67]

The conditions kinda suck. 3-5" of wet slushy snow. Any hill is pretty much unrideable. I ran the Fat Bike out the yard (I mean like literally ran with it to the Blue trail). The flat parts are OK but there are not many flat parts, as we all know. Temps are supposed to dip to mid 20's and be about 30 @ 9 am, which means the wet slush will be ice.

@Norm @pooriggy @JimN I'm thinking this is not group riding conditions. Now time for beer.

 

[JimN]

Thanks for checking it out @graveyardman67. That's pretty much what I figured.

No ride tomorrow @MissJR.

Hopefully this ride can be rescheduled. One of the best places in the state.
