Any expectations for the trails today? Friday was rain, but yesterday was sunny and windy. Gonna be in the area for daughters soccer game and was going to get on the trails for an hour or so.

Go get some. You may hit a few wet spots, but it will be great. Ringwood is bulletproof.

Wish I saw this earlier, what time is your game. My daughter plays at 4 Stonetown, I rode earlier.. trails are prime!

Yeah, that’s where mine was playing. Same time. They must have played each other.

Trails were definitely good. Lotsa fun. More rocks than I’m used to, but good to ride.

A big thanks to whoever cleared out the big tree on cats nest. Conditions were mint today, wish I had a better engine to enjoy them.

how do you think it's looking for Saturday?

Ringwood tends to drain well. Even though there was plenty of rain the last few days, a full day of drying out should provide mostly decent conditions on the higher trails. Skylands will likely be best since it is high and well armored. Upper white will likely be okay.

I rode Ringwood today, exactly as Mr.Moto said. Plenty of good riding up there, just stay off white below the pond

I know a ton of people rode here over the weekend for NJ MTB Fest, but here's my trail report (for the record). Overall, trails are in great condition, though newer trails were very dry and getting dusty (especially when ridden by 20+ riders in a row ) . Big thanks to the JORBA crews that designed and built the white and crossover trails; these were really fun to ride and your hard work stood out!

Some light rainfall in the evening, should greatly benefit the dry trail. Riding the new connector back home was a rather dusty mess. Still great, thanks again @pixychick , Art and James!

With the snow past sunday, how are things looking for tomorrow morning?

Thanks in advance.

Trails are crap. Conditions are poor. Head north and XC ski, ride the road or the trainer.

Would be interesting to see a photo of the actual trail. Things have been melting down this way and there was more rain and sleet during the storm in Ringwood. Also, before the storm there was already some freeze thaw going on. Maybe things would be OK very early in the AM but based on my observations I would still say trail conditions are poor IMO.

 

[Mr.Moto]

Lower fire roads can be icy, bare to wet. Worn down from 4x4s. As you get higher up it got better. Much better. Only a couple of riders before me on upper white. Few inches of mostly soft snow. Dare I say magic? Go get some tomorrow before it warms up.

 

[Cannonbill]

We still have lots of snow up here. I think it is probably best for fat bikes until after it thaws out.

 

[roc]

Thinking about riding tomorrow, has anyone been lately? super sketchy or OK?

Rode lower crossover from Long Meadow Road to Lot A. The only soft ground was where you cross the power lines right next to the road, the rest was frozen and great traction. Tomorrow is supposed to warmer which may not be good for the trails.
