Unknown trail needs packing bad it was boot bombed severely… I don’t think my humps is even remotely rideable so some snow shoes would help there too
Replicator and Ribbon were ok last night, but everything else was really messed up, had to work for it, our fatties smoothed some of it but it still needs to set up
Jen and I are going in this afternoon to flatten some runs out, hopefully the freezing rain Monday and Tuesday packs some fatty highways down
Working now. Looks very promising
3:21 of time in the woods. Only to be told by a trail runner to “look out, comin thru” at 0* on ribbon of love
Well hopefully it will be in great shape after the rain and freeze.
Didn’t get there today. Gonna try to get rhetr tomorrow morning
Thanks Looks great
Great news!
A combination of Mother Nature and the prepatory efforts of the snowshoeing/fatbiking masses have created fantastic conditions in Spider.
Front trails close to the trailhead are a bit rougher and have some icy spots but get increasingly smoother as you go back. Sunset and Cobra Kai are heavenly.
The Horseshoe is now open but narrow since the Snowdog (aka: Jon Burgess)
only had 5” wide tires in 15 cm deep crusty snow! Poker Run is also open.
Pretty easy to put together 15k without repeating yourself.
Go ride it, go enjoy it, go blow off some steam.
Is it good for skinnies now TT?
Yes sir, should be fine for all bikes by morning, go giv’er and thanks for your patience man!
1998 Wants your skinny 1.9-2.1 ties back.
I enjoy the skinny studded tires. Not sold on the fat bikes yet. Hard to break me away from the old school
I’m just making fun of the term. I ride regular tires at that 2.35. They are not skinny.
Take a road bike through sunset strip
Conditions are very good hard packed snow for most of the trails
Some ice in spots and around 1:00 some sunny side hills we’re getting soft
It would be a great night ride before the snow tonight
Maybe snowshoe tomorrow
Agreed, conditions are great ATM, will be really good for those riding this evening as the granular surface freezes up and offers even more traction. Studs not necessary but leave 'em on if ya got 'em.
A few of us planning to fatbike around 8am tmmrw to pack down tonights snow provided by don’t get surprise clobbered w deep amounts. Fingers crossed.
I found the conditions to be mediocre last night. Many soft granular or sandy like conditions in the snow and a narrow track.
Not sure if the guy with the Orange Blizzard I was talking to this evening while putting my crank back on is on here, but while riding back I found my pre-load cap on the trail halfway back to the truck!
RSD Mayor actually Glad to hear you found it!
Any insight on the conditions of late? Considering a ride tonight or tomorrow morning.
I’m heading in mid-day today. I’ll report back after.
