Harmony Hill trails in Downingtown PA. I’d never stopped for pictures here before since it’s a really fast & flowy section, but this one did come out quite well.

Anyone interested in a crushing MTB race check this out. Slate Valley Epic- 40 miles 5,000+- vert. This will use almost all of the network minus the two gnarlier trails.

Bruce and Toms (aka B&Ts). Linked a trailforks route below that can serve as a baseline, but best to just go out and explore there.Quote:

Explored Clyde Pond in Windham, NH yesterday. A great begintermediate network that would be awesome with people who are still relatively new to riding with enough options to keep people busy.
There are some fun features with ride arounds. Minimal climbing so lapping some of the more interesting trails is easy.
Met one of the trail builders and had a nice conversation about the development of the network. It’s super rad that the high school kids have access to this as it abuts the property.

Anybody else considering signing up for the Analog Cycles 4x4 gravel ride? Lycra discouraged.

Oh and congrats on the recovery, sc. Sweet vintage Ibis.
Hadn’t heard of this one, thanks for posting.Quote:

Man, I know it's true, but I am pretty sick of saying "yeah, but we do need the rain."
The rain does indeed suck but I keep telling myself any dry mtbing before May is a gift in VT. April offered some solid early season conditions so we're due for a rainy stretch.Quote:

Beaut of a day out there:

The North Branch trails in Montpelier opened this week so I got my first ride in for the season. It’s not quite a destination network because it’s on the smaller side but if you’re in the area and have an hour to kill it’s full of short, fast flow trails. Really fun.
