Hey man! I think we met in the parking lot yesterday, we were talking about your bike and I was lifting to see how light it was, good stuff!

 

[Robin]

Only did Canal and Jacques side. Few small puddles but overall hero dirt

Wasn't me, but all good!

First time back this year, absolutely perfect conditions right now.

Also ran into @Arwen's Mom and had a really pleasant conversation. She said to let y'all know she's doing well.

The dirt was still mostly primo even after the brief rain shower that moved through the area this afternoon. If it doesn’t rain tonight it should be great tomorrow!

I managed to catch myself in that shower this afternoon. I turned back on Red as it really was picking up, sun was starting to shine as I drove out the lot 🤦‍♂️

But yeah Blue and Red were good. A few lower trees I stopped and walked my bike under on Blue, but not impassible.

Nice bike! Did you buy it from a guy on here?

Yep! Bought it off of Kbajaj a few months ago

I was the original owner before I sold it to K. Pretty sure I saw you packing up in the lot when I arrived yesterday. Enjoy!

Just to stay on topic 6MR should be good to go today! Get it before more rain move in tomorrow!

It is indeed. Even the big puddle on orange--the one with sticks on the side--has no standing water, although just a tad soft.

And yeah sorry we've gone off topic. Storms on the horizon for tonight and all of tomorrow, so today's the day if you're trying to sneak a ride in before the work week.

 

[knobbyhead]

Well. I finally have a chance to ride 6 mike. With the recent rain how do you think the trails will be tomorrow? Do you think the budding trees will suck up the rain?

 

[jdog]

I think it’s gonna be like peanut butter on top of ice for most of today but maybe tomorrow it might be like peanut butter on top of sidewalk cement

 

[w_b]

mmmmmm peanut butter

Well I just got back from a canal side loop.
Blue was good, with the exception of some standing water in spots - a little shovel
work would do wonders. There are a couple of trees at head height just past that old spine/pinnacle thing.
I'll try to get them.

White was ok, but had a couple bad spots right before Jaques lot. Got some mud on me there.
I think a little shovel work might do it - a little bit of pushing the dirt around def would. might have left knob marks
in the very shady part of white.

Speaking of Jaques lot - The double-its-size project is moving along.

I did clear this monster off the red trail, just down from the split - Silky Bigboy FTW! (wahoo for size)

No way to clear that without a stick ramp😜

The parking expansion should help with the canal rd lot parking on the grass I was surprised too see it, have not ridden there since last summer.

 

[BuckChoklit]

I need to start from here next time I go. What's the best noob friendly route on the trails?

The whole place is newb friendly. But probably blue from the canal lot and back on white

they are putting up new barriers in the grass about 100' past the trailhead - perpendicular to the road, so they may put up a gate to stop people from going into the equipment yard.
