You couldn't even lie to me :|
Still better off riding the fatty now, instead of a 29’er?Rode it this afternoon. Pleasantly surprised. About 80% in excellent shape, about 20% mud patches (in the usual low-lying areas).
No, most of the trails are good. You should avoid the muddy sections regardless of the bike you ride. Just stay away from the typical zones that get muddy at Lewmo. Fortunately there really aren't too many of those zones.Still better off riding the fatty now, instead of a 29’er?
Are you talking about the northern most section of red?No, most of the trails are good. You should avoid the muddy sections regardless of the bike you ride. Just stay away from the typical zones that get muddy at Lewmo. Fortunately there really aren't too many of those zones.
That low point on Red and then the bottom of the switchback down to Tempe Wick lot are always a hot mess.Are you talking about the northern most section of red?
Unfortunately I am terrible at knowing where I am on the map when riding at Lewmo. But if you know Lewmo, you know where the trouble spots are. There aren’t many but the usual spots that don’t drain well are muddy. The rest was prime.Are you talking about the northern most section of red?
I was at the LewMo upper parking lot early this afternoon and was about to ride when two guys came back to their car after their ride. Their bikes were pretty heavily covered in mud; they felt mislead by the earlier reports of great conditions and that it was very muddy in more than just a few spots. I decided to forego riding there and drove over to Round Valley.Rode again this afternoon. Even better 90%+ primo dirt. Too bad tomorrow’s a washout.
I am sure it was very good. Little to no mud on my route. One slightly soft section but everything else was good. Perhaps they found a muddy section I didn’t. It was really good this afternoon. Even since Sunday they regraded a fire road that was wet and even cut down a fallen tree blocking the trail on the little loop north of the parking lot. Moot point now because looks like 1” of rain tomorrow.I was at the LewMo upper parking lot early this afternoon and was about to ride when two guys came back to their car after their ride.

So, I didn't see the actual trail conditions myself, but these guys' bikes were a muddy mess. Are you sure that you aren't being a little overly positive about the conditions at LeMo?
do you have a Strava of your route? Might head over this weekendI am sure it was very good. Little to no mud on my route. One slightly soft section but everything else was good.
