    Brushy Creek

    in Mountain Biking Discussion

    Posted

    That's a great question given that we haven't had it in a few weeks. I can't see starting any earlier than 8am, at least not until the time changes. I'd be OK myself with starting even later - 8:30 or 9 - but let's hear from [mention=13]Chief[/mention] and [mention=46]Cafeend[/mention] on their preferences. Welcome input from others as well though who are considering joining the ride. I plan to go out later this afternoon and check the trails. Deception, Picnic, and Rim were in great shape Tue afternoon, and it looks like we got less than a tenth of an inch yesterday. I'll post an update in the Ride Calls forum once I've checked the trail status. 

    I ran this am and there wasn't any evidence that would say dont ride. Few slick spots but I ran before sun was out.

    I just don't get why they didn't leave the single log to be hopped over vs. piling a bunch of kindling around it. 
    You haven't lived until you try and roll over logs that will break and impale you.

    Probably need some type of saw. The log in the middle is pretty large. Also was not sure who built it, didn't know if was some new feature designed to increase the gnar factor.

    Sooo full disclosure.. I ran into it yesterday and didn't remove it. (Call Rugger he is mia) Just bunny hoped it. I was on a mission and stopping wasnt it. I agree it was someone just making the best of a fallen tree. It should be easy enough to clear. Everything looked super dead.

    Hey to each their own. If it doesnt leave ruts I'm cool with it. It was slick as hell in a lot of spots and dangerous rocks but hey...this is mountain biking. I rode most all of it and didn't leave any lasting damage other than the typical shitty spots and a few slips from dangerous snot rocks. I would also suggest riding somewhere else but it isnt a doomsday if you do ride Brushy. Except for west side PP

    Just finished riding bits a pieces of it.

    My report is:

    *snow white: ok

    *gnargasm : ok but slick rocks morning maybe just morning dew

    *caddyshack : same as above

    *Peddlers pass: east side ok with few soft spots in bottoms of berms.

    West needs a lot more time and little tweaks on drainage.

    *Deception: good with occasional bad spots and slick rocks

    *Snail : will be ok

    Finally got access. That was strange. Anyways. I have been busy with Honey Badger and honestly neglecting maintenance needs on Deception. I suppose if someone has a few pics of problem areas ... Or pins ...that would be great. The rock rubble in the problem area could be a solution but I would rather address the drainage issue first if even possible.
