New trail markings that shouldn't damage the trees as the old markers. The number indicates the biking direction.

Trail is in pretty good shape in spite of all the rain we?ve been getting. There are a few muddy spots but nothing to keep anyone from riding it. HikerJohn?s been weed whacking and opening it up on many places. The trail was again mowed this weekend and it?s a decent and quick ride. Get out there and ride!

Most of the trail was mowed today until the blade belt broke on me. Trail is a bit wet on places but very rideable.

I’m not even sure that this forum is working anymore but I’ll try it. The trail is very wet and under water in some places,so we ask you to avoid it.

Most of the trail is a muddy mess, so please avoid it.

Rode HC on Sunday 9/10/17. Trail was in great shape. Lots of walkers out. Ran into one guy on a bike going the wrong way on red. Also ran into someone riding a mower between Y2 & Y3 keeping things in check so thank you to whoever that was! Also a big thanks for the new/extra bridges between Y3 & Y4!!! There was a new bridge between Y12 & Y13 too.

Saw a new Rolling Hills connector at O4 but did not take it. I will check it out another time. Right now it is easier for me to ride down Bemis and enter RHP through the field.

The red loop is in decent shape, but the yellow/orange loop is very overgrown between red and the rolling hills connector and also has some wet spots that should not be ridden on. I would avoid yellow as its really too overgrown to be enjoyable.

I'm not sure if its the way its suppose to be, but the connector to rolling hills goes from single track to 2 track along the edge of a farm field and then just kinda ends where the grass is way grown out too high to ride. From there, there is a somewhat of a path that goes along the actual edge of the farm field to the rider's left until you get to stoney creek road.

I ended up taking bemis road back to avoid all the long grass, as ticks are prevalent in this area.
