March 21 – It’s 18 out right now and cloudy with a snow flurrie here in town. There is lake effect snow happening farther west of us but not much here in town. It is going to be a great weekend to ride with all that fresh snow on top of the trails.

March 20

We have had 2-3 inches of new snow last night. Some road shoulders were bared off if you are planning on using them.

Trails are in the best condition of all year, flat, white and groomed.

Trails are all in good to excellent shape, but the longer the time after a groom the the rougher they get. Groomers are out smoothing out the trails daily. Hopefully if you find a not so smooth section you found many more that were freshly groomed. Groomers run 24/7 on different sections. Trails are generally groomed once a day on weekends and everyother day during the week depending on traffic, temps, and breakdowns.
