Month of Mud 2008

Word has it the 2008 Month of Mud schedule is due out soon. The rumor is this year will be a shortened schedule, 7 Springs and Mammoth are not on the list, but Moraine is definitely part of the itinerary and the series will probably begin the last week of September. Know any other rumors or premonitions please comment.

Roaring Run: Epic Ride

Road out at Roaring Run Apollo and I can't say enough just how much I love these trails.. This time of year when the canapoy is full and everything is all grown in, it just feels like you are in some other land, some other time.

My uncle said best after returning back from Colorado and being away from Pennsylvania for a few years: 'This place is a jungle'. And moreso on wet river hillsides along the Kiski.

Despite all the water we've gotten of late; the trails were pretty much mud free. This is one rocky place and the trails are built up out of the soupy muddy areas (mostly).

Some of the unofficial trails were overgrown but the 'Moutain Bike Loop' as I
remember was pretty much clear of undergrowth.

Maybe it was just that I had been off the bike for nearly a week but Monday's ride just felt good.
