The Nassau Trail is still "unlisted?" Oh, well, if anyone's interested, the trails are nice and tacky at the moment, with no mud to speak of. Jeff O. has done a great job with the water crossings (including a new bridge) and has inserted several skinnies since I was last there.

Was out here tonight. Conditions are about as good as they get. Everything is firm and tacky. Not a spec of mud out there. Hit it up and let the other places dry out.

Finally found the new trails on the other side. They need some traffic to get ridden in and made into some nice additional single track.

these trails are really fun, i wish the got a little more love. i recently moved from flemington to stewartsville so ill be basically making these my home trails. bike king (awesome shop, awesome people) is right down the road too which makes it even better. id like to see a few little kickers/jumps put in here but overall they are really fun trails. super confusing but fun either way. lets get a trail maintenance going, build some log overs and jumps!

Nassau is almost too dry right now. The corners are a little sandy. However, I think the small amount of rain coming up tonight and tomorrow will take that sand away. Keep shreding Nassau! In case anyone is wondering, there is a new trail that we are gonna start coming up in september on the clinton township side; it should be ready to ride in october, and will add another half a mile to nassau! :)

Couldn't help but ride today... rode hard for 45 minutes and easy for 30. Great loop, ended up doing about 13 miles. The conditions were better than expected: a little too tacky on the clinton township side but drier on the nassau road side. It should be perfect tomorrow afternoon.

You can link up to some good single track in vorhees.

Take the Columbia trail west till you hit rail road tracks. Take the tracks north for 1/4 mile. Pop out on the road and you'll see an entrance into vorhees. From there you got about a 700 ft climb....all single track!

Rode Nassau this morning around 6:45 and the trails are perfect. The one current issue, that is barely an issue at that, is that there is a head-hunting tree down on the rocky trail, right after the big switchback. Just make sure you duck, it almost took my head out the other day..
