AustinBike Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 yeah, my expectation is that we have rideable conditions, the rain is light right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't raining hard, but conditions for later tomorrow are less certain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustinBike Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Not sure what to think. Here is the WC weather station: https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KTXAUSTI135 Looks like this is a pretty light rain so far, but when it stops and the weather after that really matters a lot.

Albert Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 I was just outside running some errands here in Round Rock and it's pretty wet outside with a steadier rain now. And it was already wet before that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustinBike Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Yeah, I am stating to get skeptical. I may need to take a run over in the morning and check out conditions. All depends on my workload. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustinBike Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Word from those in the know is that it was a bit wet this weekend, so I think urban is the way to go. Anyone in central Austin who wants to join us should ping me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nando Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 .04" – .08" near Walnut in the last 48. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustinBike Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Yeah, but it was wet this weekend. Rain on top of wet trails will not be a good situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tree Magnet Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Unless it’s sunny and windy most of the day, I’d think it’s going to be too wet. The trails soaked in most of that Sunday rain but Monday was ugly.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I was all set to dismiss the possibility of Walnut being good today, but then the dirt in my yard wasn't muddy at all this morning. Tough call. Less than .1" barely gets through the trees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 (edited) Early report sounds like it was a bit hasty. She said Inner Log was absolutely perfect and completely dry--but then one small section at the end was really pretty bad. And then Outer Log was perfect. Edit: she ended up giving up on it. Her tires were kinda packed from that one spot. Think I'll roll over to 4C instead. Edited March 10, 2020 by Barry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Trails were in good shape yesterday, and we didn't get apreciable rain last night. Today's afternoon forecast has been all over the place though. A few hours ago it was 55% at 4pm, now it's 15%. But so long as there is no rain, I'll be out there. I'll see you from a responsible distance if you're there! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustinBike Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Did 21 miles of urban. Relaxing with a vodka and tangerine pellegrino. Ended up bailing on my surgery today so trying to drown the sorrows in a post ride social distancing beverage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntonioGG Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I did some road hills in my neighborhood in between conference calls. Social distancing from my annoying 13yo. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBaron Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 I assisted my 11 yr old with 'social distancing' from his older brothers today by going on a 36 mi urban road ride. Bonus points in that I crossed paths with Chuck on the WC bike path as he was heading out for an early-lap. Later, CJB 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
