I went for a ride on Tuesday. The carriage roads were still a little wet, trails dry enough to ride without a problem. Found fresh dirt bike tracks on the carriage roads, but none on the singletrack.



On Friday morning I went for a quick hike. I concentrated on clearing a little-used section of the red trail I'd like to reestablish. Conditions were so good I decided to go back for a ride in the afternoon. Everything was dry and OK to ride.



This place dries out amazingly fast and is one of the best places to ride in mud season. Check the blog for group rides in the near future.
