Just FYI, this morning I rolled out to 1/4 Notch and Picnic. Ground was still very soft, with caking and rutting occurring. Exposed areas may be dry, but other areas will be muddy. Riding not advised. This afternoon some of the trails may be okay, but I’d wait until tomorrow. 

Yea, go for it!

2.25” of rain last night according to the gauge. Whomp whomp! 

In other news, I picked up my bike yesterday from the shop so once it drys out I’ll be back to hitting the trails. 

Saweeetttt thanks for the heads up.

Anyone got a trail report? 

Unfortunately I’m not near my house so I can’t check, but they should be good to go with the possible exception being Peddlers Pass. 

Haha nice. I try to get shoe or tire pics as evidence for the Twitter feed updates. 

Yard near 1/4 Notch is fairly soft. If you get out there and ride just use caution. If you get caking then turn around and spin on the concrete. 

Peddlers Pass: G2G

1/4 Notch is G2G. Watch for remaining low wet spots. 

Walking to Picnic now.

*Update* 

Picnic: Almost okay. Number of soft spots that result in caking. I’d recommend to give it until tomorrow. 

Other trails: Unable to check. Snow White will be okay, while trails like Gum Drop may be too soft. USE CAUTION

With all the sun and wind today, I feel like quarter and DD may be good by 5. Thoughts?

Open areas may be okay, but we got quite a bit of rain last night. I’m about 300 ft from the 1/4 Entrance and my yard was a swamp this morning. Additionally, the east entrance is guarantee to be slimy. 

Im about to leave work and will check when I get home, but to be honest I’d be surprised if it’s good to go. 

So without reposting all of the Brushy Creek Trail Conditions posts... 

1/4 Notch: G2G. Some soft low spots remain. Ride thru or hike a bike over. Do not ride around, minimize trail widening. 

Double Down: G2G

Picnic: G2G. Slightly tacky in areas. Typical soft low spots. 

Mulligan: G2G. Bottom of drops are wet. These take quite awhile to dry. 

Peddlers Pass: *update* G2G

Other trails: Use caution. Snow White, Gnargasm, Rim are likely G2G. I didn’t have time to confirm but it’s a good guess based on other trail conditions. Gum Drop may be too soft, again use caution/common sense.

So, any chance Brushy is ride-able this weekend? We had a LOT of rain here in Pf, almost 4 inches in the last three days.

Yes. I just got back from cutting grass on the 1/4 Notch entrance and Picnic. I think tomorrow 1/4 Notch and some of the other trails will be good to go. Peddlers will be closed tomorrow morning and afternoon and may open in the evening depending on conditions. I plan to check the trails before 7AM tomorrow and will post an update. Just FYI, here at 1/4 Notch we received about 2.5” of rain

Annnddd more rain last night. 

On the plus side my vegetable garden is doing great.

Tomorrow is possible. Rain gauge shows a little under 1.5”. We got a downpour that lasted awhile around 8PM then another shower sometime later in the night. 

Trails are still very soft. Got a ton of caking on my boots within feet of walking 1/4 Notch. Picnic is soft and has a couple of ruts forming from impatient riders. Other trails, particularly those with shade will be soft as well. 

Started working on cutting the overgrowth on Lower Picnic today. Still more to do, but I was starting to run low on gas (the brush hog and myself) so called it quits for the day.

My fault. I wouldn't want to mix you up with that scoundrel Davis Green I hear he wears lycra and goes slow.

Lycra and being slow? Sounds like me.

SUB NINJA has been worked on. Gum drop hasn't or snow. But Snow is so low traffic I'm not gonna worry on it now. Davis Green offered to cut Picnic and he lives within walking distance to it so I just need to drop at his place. Thanks. I'll let you know if we can coordinate the other areas.

Davis Green?!?!? My nemesis! David Green! 

Albert, let’s coordinate this week to clean these sections up with the hog. I’ll shoot you a PM.

I already responded on FB, but it's ok, go ahead and ignore the senior society....

millennial's....phtt 

Haha same. I can get to this tomorrow or early in the week.

Word. I’m stuck at work until this evening, so if someone goes out let us know how things look so I can update the feed and FB. 

From what I saw on the radar and my camera it didn’t last long, so if we get some sun the trails should dry quickly. 

Trails are bueno. Go ride!

Please, please dont rain too much. Only day off is tomm. 

May be okay. We got some rain, but things are drying quickly. 

I checked Picnic yesterday and it was still too soft. I’m headed out to check the trails after work, but if anyone beats me to it let us know how things are looking so I can update the feed. 

I have video of a kid on a red dirt bike riding around near Mulligan. 

Took a walk this morning and noticed the 1/4 Notch entrance had a fair share of muddy spots where trail runners continued thru. Jerks! 

I’ve been in Colorado so no updates from me. I’m waiting for one of you guys or gals to check things out and report back.

Seems like the rain keeps holding off, at least where I live.  Are the trails rideable at Brushy?

 

Still g2g.
