Saturday 2/11/12 at Sunderbruch 1pm

Starting a new thread here for peeps who want to ride Sunderbruch this Saturday. 1pm works best for us since we are getting the kids at 3.

[Bexter]

It is my intention to be there. I know it's going to be quite cold. If it's windy on top of it, I may bail (I'll text you if I decide to bail). But, gameplan as of now is that Bexter will be rockin the 2 9 at Sunderbruch on Saturday!!

Can someone post a trail condition report after their ride tomorrow? I'm thinking about riding later in the day.

[Westy_3]

The sun will be out, so it won't seem too bad.


This maybe the last ride on my Trek, probably going to break down and finally buy a new bike next week.

We rode sylvan today and it was frozen solid. I assume sunderbruch is the same

With today's high being in the low 20's I would say your assumption is likely safe.

Have a good ride!

Rode two laps at Illiniwek last night and the trails were perfect, just like over dressed summer riding!

The sun is out. It's cold, but we're not wimpy! Let's do it!! See you in a few hours!

What are you looking at or considering?

[Westy_3]

Probably the Giant Talon 29er 1. Still looking at the Trek version but I keep going back to the Giant. I want to take it for a spin before I put the cash down, so we'll see.


See everyone at 1.

[Augustice]

Nice! See you guys at 1.

[dgw2jr]

Good ride! Just wish I didn't feel like I just smoked a full pack o' menthols!

I heard there were quite a few muddy spots...

Yes mainly on the south slopes where there's a lot of exposure to the sun

dang...was hoping these temps would freeze it solid. probably the same spots we've been fighting for years.

Maybe plant some trees there to block the sun? Idk

We rode from 2-4pm. First lap we skipped LT (due to lazyness), then found the sections with some muddy sections (Jubilee, Sugarbottom, and Blue Mound), then did a few laps where we just skipped those trails and had basically a full dry lap. Many of the soft spots were freezing up again by the time we were on our last lap. The key for today was probably avoiding the 11-3 time frame.

That's good info!
