[QUOTE=cerealkilla';2687251] up the corners [/QUOTE]

I assume you mean the road. Does anyone ever pedal up the corners? Sometimes I wonder when I'm heading down.

4 Lakes is also open now so you can throw that in the mix too.

They go up the corneres in the Gearjammer. Definitely not as much fun as down, but it's actually a good way to get a sweat up on your way to the NorthNorth connector, just not as much fun without Don't Tell Jude to lead you into it. The road feels a bit dreary sometimes. It's all about linking stuff up. I've even seen folks pedalling up Half Nelson and Rollercoaster too, but you have to be super careful of oncomers- don't want to take some groms' pedals in the grill.

I always thought the trail was called "Marc, my word!".

glad to know deliverance still gets ridden, one of my old favorites too

You may find the latter part of Deliverance a little less tree frog friendly and a little more bike friendly next time you ride it. Could use a bit more love, but did what I could with the time and tools I had on my own. The wood to wood thing has a broken slat but still seems sturdy enough with what's left. I'd sooner remove it entirely and leave singletrack there but that's not my call. The uphill wood for the exit is a bit wobbly. It will probably last another season or two but will need to be replaced soonish.

Definitely a great trail that is still in favor. At least with the guys I ride with anyway.

The Sorca trail fund gets a cut of physical map sales not app sales.

Going for another ride this morning. Looking for Fast, pedally, somewhat roots but not overly tech. Any reccomebdations would be appreciated.

That was sweet!

Angry Midget was pretty dusty and blown out, but still a fun ride. Fred/Word of Mouth was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!

This past weekend Half Nelson, East Infection, PS, and Committed were all really nice. If its raining this weekend it will be wet but I dont think the snow will be down that low.

Disclaimer; I ride year round and prefer cold and wet. 100+ days this calendar year.

Guys, the dirt has loads of grip right now. Way better than mid July, and only rivalled by last December's deep freeze. Top 5 day this year for dirt. *Insane grip!* Go get some.
