I don't think so. I'm just immature for my age.

I was there this morning including part of the ST loop, but we had to turn back due to ice. This was my first time in there with a friend providing the tour so I can only remember that the Maze was also icy. we did make it around the lake and some of the single track so it wasnt a lost day.
On the other hand I am sure that @Norm and the crew have a great contingency plan in place to make the event happen without increased risk or the need for ice skates.

Yup, we have 2 contingency plans. We got this.
There's still snow at the ranger station though sparingly. That side of the hill doesn't get the direct sun in most areas. I would imagine super peanutbutter soft. Upper trails probably not bad if you ride from firetower lot up top.

Stephens report.
Got out yesterday from Tilcon (Kinney rd.), All in all many large areas are very bad. The Blue Rock trail is a disaster, mud, mud, mud, snow and ice. Going up to the Tipi rock has alot of mud on ice dirt. Big mud section heading to the trail that goes under the mulch pit with the 4 log crossings, that whole trail is a disaster (mud). The Swamp and the Chop was ok by comparison. Large mud area on the Precooler tr. just before Funyun was unrideable. Large stretches of the Trestle trail heading toward Pink were also mudded out. (and DON'T look that one up in the urban dictionary)
Give it a few weeks, when the park improves and you ride from Tilcon then skip Blue Rock and go up Kinney rd. make a left and a right onto the old railroad bed over to the Trestle.
