Anyone been out to Wiss this week? My guess is that it's still wet and muddy, but I'm hoping it's getting better with each day. Looking for an early Saturday morning ride, but don't want to plan anything if it looks like the trails won't be rideable before then.

Max?? Anyone??

TIA,

Bob

BAD! just got back from walk with Jill from IMBA and they are in bad shape. If we get no rain Sunday might be rideable, but it will be wet no doubt...

Thanks, folks! Max, keep us posted, but it looks like I'll be making other plans.

I rode out to Wiss this afternoon, the trails in the eastern end were generally ok, but wet and muddy in places. I then stuck to Forbidden Dr which was fine by Valley Green, but the rest went from muddy, to wet, to snow. The trails off Forbidden Dr looked pretty wet and muddy and a few were still covered with snow. The conditions aren't gonna get any better as its now raining.

It was still a good ride, especially as I was covered in mud by the end of it. I've now gotta do alot of cleaning before the Foto Op on Sunday!!

Hope this helps....

Yea I almost hate to say this but I am going to get muddy this weekend, very muddy. It may just be from rolling around in the mud or riding somewhere, but I can't take it any more and this is the rainy season, so it's go time...
