Went back to the trails and they are great!
| ThankRode the back section this afternoon and had a blast, just didn't ride as fast as normal. This time of the year the weather is nice but the leaves are falling, in certain areas the trail is already covered, so be extra cautious, even if you know the trail exceptionally well.
| ThankI rode the back section yesterday and the condition of the trail was near perfect, partly because there was a race here last weekend and packed the ground and traction was near perfect also. Although it was a little warm (86 degrees), I seem to enjoy and perform best in hot weather. Since the trails have finally dried out from the damp cold winter, the riding has been great. The back section is laid out very similar to Wild Turkey and Blue Heron with the turning, twisting, short up and down, technical dips, and tough climbs. That's the reason I like this trail so much.
| ThankBack again this place is the best!!
| ThankI rode the yellow section today, ccw. This section has a little more flow and I was able to carry a little more speed. There are still many hand side rocks and big roots to keep your speed in check. Entering the yellow section ccw there an easy climb until you get all the way over to the right side and start up the longest continuous climb on the entire course, I'm assuming that's the edge of the property line where a big section of trees were logged. It rained about all day yesterday, but there was no slick places anywhere. All in all this was a good ride, with perfect 68 degrees weather.
| ThankGreat trail love to mountain bike here. Some sections are a little technical but nothing too crazy really fun place. Enjoy nature, and place pick up after yourself. AAA
