Thanks!!!

Are you actually from Paradise? We were up there this summer for a week. LOVE it up there. :)

Most of the obstacles appeared to be there the last time I rode the trail, but some of them were pretty overgrown & in need of some TLC.

Trail is clear of snow, but has two trees down on the orange loop. Some ice in spots, and some of it is VERY hard to distinguish, so ride with care over the next week. Had two hard crashes in one lap out there.

Has anyone been out here lately? I'm ready to ride, but want to make sure the trails are ready to go before I make the trip out to Ithaca.

Haven't been out there recently but Ithica usually takes quite a while to dry out compared to other trails. I would give it a while yet.

An absolute mess of mud, water and thorns. It'll be a while before I try again.
