    Is the fully loop a poor choice to ride tomorrow? Are there any closures to the trail?

    This ramp area after the lake was a ADA thing. We were not to happy with the angle it was installed ( looks like mud and dirt will run all over it)

    Bigger news is that the Euclid closure on Hiltscher Trail is over. The fence is still there till Monday morning, however the gate is wide open. Contractor is 99.9% complete, but he would rather have the bikes on the trail instead of the idiots riding around the fence down the slope through the shrub beds.

    It's pretty warm and sunny up here right now. I'd imagine you'll have some damp spots, but it's pushing 24 hours since it was raining.

    Personally I'd give it another day just to be safe. There's a lot of sun in the forecast, by tomorrow you should have no concerns.

    took a lap today and noticed a few things:
    - the ladder bridge next to the golf course parking on harbor is gone. i think it lasted a couple months.
    - the top section of the coyote hills park downhill section was cleaned up. major ruts cleaned up for now. my favorite line on that right now is to drop into the single track and go over the hump towards the left before the first right turn. kinda rollercoastery.

    I rode there today and it was dry. Trails were in good shape. Did my PR of 1:04 @ 11.8miles! It was a good day.

    Fully loop conditions

    I usually the Oaks after work but due to the rain it looks like it will be still be closed tomorrow. I know the loop is usually ok after a day or so, with the exception of the tracks, but I am not sure how much rain it got. Interested to see if it is ridable tomorrow night without damaging the trail.

    Thoughts??

    We (Fullerton) got alot of rain yesterday and last night, it might be still muddy in spots. If you MUST ride go for it if not give it another day.

    I have found that the 2nd day is much better to ride on...although i have never ridden the day after rain..2nd day seems to have the best grip.

    Do you think it will be ok to ride Fullerton Loop after the short shower last night? Also, is there still a detour? Let me know...
