Nassau Trail conditions

[Norm]

conditions are great, well, except someone is letting their dog drop a deuce in the middle of the trail and not cleaning it up. Beware of brown sticks as they may not be sticks.

I may have missed the memo on this, but is the trail gap drop on the jump trail leading to the Foran field trail permanently closed?

Last time we were there it was. Though it didn’t exactly look official.

It has been closed for at least a few weeks now. From what I can tell, it looks like the crew is building up the exit of the gap drop with rock armoring so that it stands the test of time.

That would be great, I hope you are right. I kind of feared someone decided it was no bueno.

With the relatively low makeshift barrier in front, I get the urge to bunny hop the whole thing Duke's of Hazzard Style, but so far I am taking the high road instead

But that's just a little bit more than the law will allow.

Gap drop has been opened. The crew refurbished it two weeks ago. Trails are open.

new and improved gap jump rides great.

the crew dug some improved drainage spots throughout the springside trails and some of the Nassau side as well. Dirt was nice and tacky tonight.

 

[pkovo]

Yes, trails rode really well last night. Seems like in addition to draining, there was some grooming and cleanup done. I believe some turns were cleaned up. That combined with the tackiness of the dirt left it riding great!

My first ride there yesterday. Hella fun, and the only place I know that has a jump track. (I'm up north). Thanks for the trailwork, peeps!

Anybody plan on going here tomorrow? I can get there around 330ish but have never been before. I know it's last minute but this second shot didn't mess me up so I'm ready to explore.

Enjoy. I hit it today. Trails are perfect. Hard to make a good loop without a guide but also hard to get lost.

If you have a gpx file you can send me I'd appreciate, next best thing to having a guide. I'll have a go at it tomorrow since I didn't bring my bike to work.

Can you get it from here? Garmin and Strava make it such a pita.

Enjoy. I hit it today. Trails are perfect. Impossible to make a good loop without a guide but also hard to get too lost.

FTFY. My experience anyway. 😁

Thanks, I'll try and grab it from my laptop with garmin base camp. On my phone it goes to garmin connect but I can't see where to add it to mine.
Yep, was able to grab it off connect on my laptop, thanks again.

That’s about all the trails and most in both directions so if it overlaps that’s why

I can string together 8-9 miles with very minimal repeated trails. Happy to show you around.

Sorry, I meant to say this was when I first started riding here. I kind of know my way around now, but would still like to take you up on that sometime. I'm sure there is plenty that I'm missing. 👍

If you don't mind an extra person, I'm in for that tour too. I don't mind winging it but always better with a guide. Basically I'm a, "have bike will travel" guy.

Maybe we can get a MTBNJ group ride there. I’ll talk to the powers that be. I can lead one but but still July probably.

I know a guy. I’ll see what I can do.
