Shes dry out there.

do you want a friendship cookie?

i would preferr a Hero cookie :agree:

My personal opinion is that the trails are damaged more in the very dry than the wet. Rode Cypress today [HTML_REMOVED] whoa, talk about loose! At least in the wet the trails are tacky. (Except after a dry spell then they are greasy) For me the real riding begins in the fall. Different riders, differing opinions.

I find that when the trails get ultra dry, as they are getting now, they start to fall apart too.

Essentially, when it's drier out the trails will get worn out much worse than when wet. Speed tends to increase with dryness, so the lines that people choose differ dramatically. Some cut corners tighter, others more moderate and the rest wide. Trails become more defined in the wet and people more often than not will hit the same line, so the erosion is more focused on specific points on the trail as compared to dry conditions.

It sure is hazy/smoggy out in my neck of the woods these days.:(

i just hope it all holds out long enough to let me get my time in up there.
as a montana resident, i can relate. The fire season is serious, and they do have to shut things down.
