Mostly ticky with a chance of sand. Good to go.

How are conditions? Still good or did you guys get a-lot of rain over the weekend?
Was fine yesterday. A bit sandy and crowded though.

Excellent. No standing water this evening, though I didn't ride every trail; the river trail was pretty much bone dry/tacky at worst.
I'd expect that Mick's probably has a teeny bit of soft corners left, and the bridge next to the car is probably a bit soft/muddy still. That spot will need some serious rebuild/rework since this winter.

Ugh. 45 minutes into my ride yesterday - broken spoke. Conditions looked mint. Looks like I need a straight pull 1.8 or 2.0 (1.9? - the tool is loose on the 2.0, 1.8 won't fit!) 296mm spoke. Those do not seem to grow on trees.
Good thing I just sold my back up bike because I never ride it!

Brielle has a 15g spoke rolling head, but yeah, 296 is pretty damn long. You aren't measuring the diameter at the threads, are you? That would measure 'wrong'.

Missed this before.
Nope. Rob (I think) at Shrewsbury Cycles found the same weird measurement but the threads were 2.0.

Yeah, the thread rolling process for spokes increases the diameter 0.2mm in bicycle sizes.
Dry and sandy today.

Gonna be absolutely dy-no-mite tomorrow. There were a few soft corners that have been problems, but everything else was dry.

Got there at 9:30, conditions were outstanding!!! Trying to branch out and familiarize myself with the layout, I stumbled across the jump line on the parking lot side, never been to that before. Tried my hand at a few, managed to not dead-sailor or hit any trees!
Side note, my Enduro is way too much bike for there, even set up for trails like I have it; but boy does that thing cook downhill!! And it just hooks up on every turn, even in the sand. Really loving it.
