Rode Grand ridge on Saturday (Tax Day).  Started from the High Point way exit, and climbed up the ridge from the south.  Climb is well groomed and 100% ride-able.  New 2 mile loop off main trail is in GREAT condition, with zero puddles or mud spots.  I rode to the Duthie connector, and encountered a couple dozen mud-spots, large puddles (all ride-able) that weren't too deep.  Total ride out-and-back including the new trail loop was just under 15 miles.  No trees down that weren't cleared, and trail in good late spring condition.  Encountered runners, hikers, and a few small groups of MTB-ers.
