6 Mile Run Conditions

[pygmypony]

hey folks, a few friends of mine and i were going to ride the red white and blue trails at 6MR tomorrow to celebrate july 4th. my wife just told me we had torrential rain in edison. anyone have first hand observations of how 6MR fared? looks like we could get even more rain overnite so my guess is we could be washed out tomorrow sadly...

I'm in Hillsborough right now and it's pouring!
I rode 6 mile this morning and it was great, few puddles. But now I'm sure it's s mess...

I live 2.4 miles away from the canal lot (as the crow flies). I wouldn’t ride six mile tomorrow.

We got some rain over by the shop, but not really much. Looks like it's really localized.

just walked in for only about 5 mins from rte 27 and it’s bone dry! #microclimate

i’m sure it will start dumping as soon as i leave!

So has Six Mile remained untouched by rain?

Going there in 30 mins, I will advise. Anticipating hot and dusty.

Well, I found it clever.

If sourlands were rideable yesterday, 6mr should be fine today

Awesome. We got dumped on in north jersey, wasn't sure about down here.

 

[Tim]

Thanks guys! I hope to get out this afternoon.

Now I was going too make a ' hot and dusty' and ridable crack but...

 

[02camaro]

It was hot and is fine to ride. Some moist spots but even by steel Bridge on blue is drying out and better than I've seen some days. Only did the canal side.

 

[tommyjay]

Rode canal to 27 on blue/orange and back on orange/red. Mostly dry and dusty with some lingering mud holes. Definitely rideable until the flash floods roll in...

Did it rain by 6mi the last couple days or are the trails good to ride?
