Wed 6 PM ride from VGI
0 votes

The ride is cancelled for this week. I will be out of town for one, and the trails are most likely have too many soft and muddy spots. 

With warmer and dryer weather, it should be better to ride later this week.

Cheers

Wed ride on June 23rd - Cancelled

Despite the trails being in perfect condition and not because of the heat, I have to cancel today's ride due to other commitments.

Wed Feb 9th - ride is on

It will be on the colder side, but the trails will be frozen firm, so it's on.

At 6 PM @ VGI

2011-03-16 : Rain and other obligations = cancelled ride

Sadly I have to cancel the ride for this week. After few days of really nice conditions the rain rolled in and I also have few things to take care of tonight, so no ride. 

Hopefully it will dry out by tomorrow night and definitely by Friday and the weekend!

Enjoy the riding!

2011-03-30 : Ride is on (weather permitting) moved up to 5:30

In order to capitalize on the day light and in the effort to avoid the rain that is moving in later in the evening we will try to start at 5:30 from VGI

If it's raining by then, the ride is off. So check the forecast and radars before leaving the house.

Weather related cancellation this week. But with all this rain and warmer temps, by the weekend and next week the park should be almost fully green!

See you next week.

2011-04-20 : Road ride instead of dirt

With all the rain we had in the last 3-4 days and no good chance for drying up, going to give the trails some rest and let them dry up.

Hitting the road instead. Shawmont & Umbria @ 6 PM if you have a road bike and want to spin some miles.
