    Looking to get a ride tomorrow morning depending on what the weather looks like. For those of you that went out tonight for a ride, how'd the trail look?

    The loop was great,better than i thought it would be,still wet by the tracks,a few puddles here and there.You better ride while you can cause it looks like rain for a few days.

    Rode the loop tonight and it was fine. Just as Buck said. Golf course was fine with tiny patches of mud here and there that you can ride around. Extra credit climb at the end was a bit soft, but fine nonetheless.

    As long as you don't ride over the mud, you should be fine, traction is great. I just spent an hour cleaning my bike.

    Fully Loop Trail Conditions

    Any idea what the condition it will be like tomorrow (12/25)? Would like to get a ride in before another storm scheduled for Saturday night. Sick of this...

    Should be good, the loop holds up ok. But The train tracks are going to be flooded. Haven't been there today though...

    fully loop is rideable. i rode there this morning, saw about 10+ riders. the golf- brea dam were too muddy, so better avoid that.
    other than that, it was pretty good. just go slowly and be safe.

    I rode it today. there were 2 trees down, one required a HAB the other already had a detour route. Plus the usual storm related damage. Should be pretty sweet tomorrow. I'm going to ride it once my boys open their presents and stuff. It was real nice getting back on the bike cause of the weather.

    Fullerton Loop was pretty darn good yesterday, but don't turn down to the RR tracks as it gets ugly from there to the culverts. Go straight instead and hop onto Bastunchury to Harbor.

    How's fullerton loop now?

    I wanna hit the loop tomorrow. It seems like the only rideable place right now after all the rain. Anyone ride it today/tonight?

    Any other rideable trails now?
    Thanks

    I think there ought to be a sticky post for each major trail. "Existing" threads can be buried deep and hard to find especially if it has not rained for quite awhile, which won't be a problem now, but it will be.

    Too many trails to make all a sticky. I posted 1 thread that is a sticky that has all the links to it a lot of trails.

    I know there are a lot more trails so if you have a trail in mind. PM me and I'll add it to this. Thanks.
