My comments were not meant as criticism, but as concern and to highlight the conditions for other riders. And I do appreciate the trail and all you do for it. Please don't get me wrong. I just merely intended to post the conditions of the trail (hence the posting in the Trail Conditions & Comments section). I drove 30 miles out of my way to ride the trail and was a bit disappointed at the condition. The original 10 mile section was in great condition last year when I rode there. I only rode two new sections as I was limited for time. I understand those sections will be rough till they are broke in. That is to be expected.
I've ridden several trails elsewhere that had rogue MX riders find them and trash them with a few spins around. I honestly though that might be the case here until I was informed later it was a trail maintenance technique. Please understand that my posting here was to inform others the trail of the trail conditions, especially those who might drive out of their way to ride the trail.
I'm sorry for coming across as ungrateful and critical. That was not my intent. Again, thanks for your time and efforts. Vaughn, I'm glad it's working back in nicely. Like I said originally, rain and riding will help it out. Ken, If I lived closer, I'd be out there sweating away too. Schedule a trail day for a Sunday and I might be able to make up there.
