A great week and weekend on the trails for riding and working on the course. Pleasant temps and dry conditions. The course is taking shape nicely and riding has been very nice. Handful of folks out on the course over the weekend, practicing for the bike race.
The course is open daily for riding and is marked and taped for the bike race weekend. There is no charge to use the trails. The trail starts behind the Great Northern building and follow the maintained trail and white signs with black arrows. Please park in the first parking lot by the first freight house. .

The new mountain bike singletrack trail is open for riding. Head to Twin Lakes and look for the mountain bike trail sign. Ride the trail to the end and ride back!! We encourage riders to check out the trail and help us pack it down. The plan is to make a 4-5 mile loop but the trail is open for out and back riding for now. This new singletrack is not part of the race course but we plan on having a point to point event in the future using this new singletrack as well as other trails in the area.
Dry conditions on the weekend making for nice riding. The deer flies have not been an issue and mosquitoes bad, only if you stop!! Wind bringing down a few twigs and branches this week but overall good riding conditions. We will be working on the course pretty much every day next week up until race day to put the course in best condition possible for race day.

Just over an inch of rain on the weekend and a few passing showers on Monday. Cool and fresh rest of the day on Monday and today, Tuesday. The trails are in excellent shape and set up nicely for the winter. Frequent moisture keeping the woods green and lush. The trails are open for running, hiking and biking. They are closed to horses and motorized use.
A nice weekend of riding on the mountain bike course. Pretty much perfect on Saturday with cooler temps and nice breeze blowing through the woods. A few rain showers early on Sunday but afternoon drying up for some good riding later. A good turnout of riders over the weekend and we also did some trail work on Saturday, mainly on the singletrack (photos below). We will continue working on the singletrack this week and also have been working on the new singletrack over by Twin lakes.

Cooler temps once again. Few passing showers the past few days but totals have been light as more moisture falling to the north and south of us. Has been a very nice summer for riding on the bike course. A few hot and humid days but generally dry and fresh weather and a steady flow of riders. Course is damp in spots but not muddy. A few deer flies out but not as bad as some years. We have been working on the course here and there, brushing out overgrown areas and doing dirt work on singletrack sections.
