I'm sure the summer-like weather didn't hurt either.

They just opened one in Woodstock. https://www.ranchcampwoodstock.com/ I agree, the foliage was pretty dull this year.

I rode Mt Pegg on Monday and most of the trails were clear. The rain wasn't too heavy tuesday night so it might still be decent. Biggest issue was driving through Woodstock with the Leaf-Peeping gridlock! I wanted to try that new Ranch Camp restaurant/bikeshop and couldn't get in the place it...

I'll second this. I have an older version that's at least 3 years old and still works great. I have the zipper version and the zipper has not broke (which was a concern when I bought them). I love the zipper version because I always forget to put the pads on before my shoes and then have to...

If you're driving up or back during the daytime, I like to hit Daniel's Road Park in Saratoga or Slate Valley, VT. Great tech riding and breaks up the trip a little.

At least TRY an eMTB. It takes the "chore" part out of riding and make you feel like a kid again.

I'd like to get your thoughts on Moreau. I felt like they were hiking trails that allowed biking, but it's possible I wasn't hitting the good trails.

The trail layout reminded me of Mt Pegg with the big climbs and big decents. They both even have a golf course!

Just rode SV for the first time but only hit the Endless River side of the park. It reminds me a lot of Port Jervis watershed. How does the Fairground side compare? is it worth going back to ride it?

and a petting zoo

yes. X marks the spot(s)

I can report some more trees down. In addition to the tree reported on 7/26 there is a tree down on -Lower Trail To Pipeline -3 Amigos at the intersection of the Bouldering Area C Climb -Center Connector Trail (right at the top) besides that the conditions are fantastic. No sweating rocks...

"Anyway, so any new emtb owners in the making here? How about that Amflow, huh?" 90% of the time the standard 85-90nm motor is more than enough power. Even mid-support motors are plenty most of the time. But I've been on some really cool climb-trails with big berms and rollers that having...

A few weeks ago I was riding and I saw quintessential bad stereotype ebiker. He was overweight, it was a cheap ebike with fat tires, it was hub drive, it had mechanical disc brakes, (though he was wearing a helmet and actually was pedaling). My first reaction was to cringe, but then I...

any potential for alt lines on that Danbury trail to spice it up?
