Got a moderately big slice of Tiger today, Iverson CW, ETS to OTG to FR to JR to NW Timber.  The recent rains had a net-zero effect out here; trails are still generally bone dry and loose.  The wildfires raging in Chelan have cast an almost...

Did a solo ride counter-clockwise around this loop on Sunday, took just over 2 hours. I was glad that I got a relatively early start, as much of the road is south facing and pretty exposed to the sun. Riding the lolipop clockwise would let you do mos...

Landslide at Lower Dungeness trailhead is still an issue, but you can drive throughRd #230 right up to the edge of parking lot and park along side of road. Bigger issue are the landslides near end of the trail itself.  You will need to hik...

I'm sure when maintained this trail is decent, but I was quite disappointed in it today. It know it is mid/late summer but the level of overgrown weeds and thorns today was on another level. Way too much of that to be enjoyable, and dangerous too sin...

Finally getting a chance to post about my first ride on Freund Canyon Trail a few weeks ago.  Had a great time.  Have biked around the Lake Wenatchee area a bunch, but got a hall pass from the family on a weekend trip to ride Freund Canypn....

Manastash bike trails are getting dusty but not so bad that they are moon dust.  Rip Line is getting super loose.  Chest Pains and Pink Pelvis are hard packed and buff 90% of the way.  There are some sections that are super slick becau...

I stopped in Yakima and rode Rocky Top.  Pretty easy to find but the directions are a little mis-leadiung so I had to look around a little harder for it once I got to Rocky Top Rd.  I ended up in the neighborhood just north of it at first.&...

Great adventure bike ride, amazing landscape, views, and lots of berries! The ride along the lakeside warms you up, but the climb is big - try avoid doing it in the heat of the day! I would reiterate the ride report two below - it is a technical tr...

Escaped the lowland heat for the big trees and big views the 410 area provides. The trails are in great shape, with Ranger even having a slight carpet of evergreen needles on it in places. We climbed Ranger in the morning humidity and parts of the tr...

Went here yesterday for the first time just to check it out and mix up my riding. The trails were pretty dry and loose from all the horse traffic (dry from the drought we are in, of course). Horse poop was present, but not that much of an issue altho...

Rode Grand Ridge on Friday and despite the drought, it's holding up like a champ, with only a few loose/marbly spots. This continues to be my favorite urban trail in the Seattle area. There was a big running event on Saturday so we'll see if the many...

Early morning ride out to the lake and back. Rode the CW loop (out on the "upper" trail, back on the "lower"). Rocky in the usual places. Sand was generally firm. The dirt was in great shape, with just a bit of moisture from the recent rains. Plenty...

Word of Warning: For those who ride the plank bridges on Cedar Run, there are a few downed trees (small ones...but still) on the bridge with the two drops (the one marked by the caution signs).  It's still able to be ridden but there's now a new...

First time here and had a fun time! Did as much of the park as I could and did some clearing west of the south entrance. There is a big blow over between waypoint 10 and 11 needing a chainsaw. I cleared a smaller one in the south west between 19...

Rode Noble Knob and Dalles Ridge of part of a White River/Corral Pass/Noble Knob/Dalles Ridge/Palisades loop.  Perfect day for it - mid-to-high 90's F down in the lowlands made for perfect outdoor-napping temps in the subalpine.  The gate o...

Rode Palisades as part of a White River/Corral Pass/Noble Knob/Dalles Ridge/Palisades loop, and found the trail to be in much better shape than expected. Had not ridden it since the '14 Enduro, and was expecting a lot of residual evidence of damage...

Rode White River from the north end (Palisades exit) to Corral Pass road as part of a Noble Knob/Dalles Ridge/Palisades loop.  Trail was perfect!  No blowdown or dismounts, tail wasn't overly dry.  Just gorgeous.

Since I-90 was closed for the Blue Angels I did South Sea Tac until the traffic was gone. Went on all the trails I could find and then down to the beach. Due to the numbers of stickers around the trails, one got my tube so I needed a pit stop to patc...

No surprise this is the driest/loosest I've ever seen the trails at Tokul East, but Flowtron is in especially poor shape. Overgrown on the upper section to the point where you can't see the trail, and large blackberry vines crossing at chest and hea...
