I like the new line! Could never ride the old one… too tall.

Hydro works on Ridge are finally cleared, and trail has been restored!
Rob DeBoer replied to the topic Daily Trail conditions in the Don in the forum THE DON VALLEY 2 months, 3 weeks ago
Hydro works on the Ridge are not currently passable… heavy machinery at work.

My forearms have been stinging all day from this morning’s ride… seems to be more nettles than usual this year! Maybe give Flats a pass unless you’ve got sleeves. Small tree down on Boo just below the flat section. Pottery, Ridge, Swamp, SHT… some greasy puddles here and there after the other night’s rain, but generally awesome!

These are the days… go get it!

Where is the bypass for the Hydro works at Millwood? I ended up turning around this morning. Otherwise, ridge, flats, boo are pretty great. Bottom of swamp is a mess, but otherwise good. SHT is a mud pit at the bottom. Getting there though… beautiful day!

Also disheartening to see this mess:
It’s clearly recycling from those apartment buildings. Can they be held accountable for the cleanup?

Just rode Pottery -> Ridge… aside from a few muddy spots here and there, it’s pretty dry! Couldn’t see an easy way through the Hydro works though… took a bit of schlepping to get across.

Dang… was hoping more of the ice would have gone after the weekend.
Rob DeBoer replied to the topic Daily Trail conditions in the Don in the forum THE DON VALLEY 11 months, 2 weeks ago
Indeed. Anyhoo… Rode Pottery -> Crothers -> Ridge -> Boo -> Swamp -> Woods Gundy -> SHT as well as Flats this morning, all pretty decent apart from a few greasy spots and some bad rutting on Boo and Flats. Came out with a clean bike! Loving this weather.

Hoping for prime frozen conditions tomorrow morning. It’s weird… when I was in there last week I was imagining what it would be like to have one of those Law and Order moments where a jogger (or cyclist) finds a body in the woods. Just read that a woman’s body was found on Monday after hiking in Crothers on Sunday evening. Did anyone catch any…[Read more]

Good riding today!

Got in early this morning, did Pottery -> Ridge -> Boo -> Swamp -> Woods Gundy -> SHT… all in excellent form. Noticed a couple of tweaks on Ridge, including a line shift on the long hill west of Millwood.

City crews out working on the Ridge today.

The waters have receded, but there’s lots of evidence of their passing! The rock crossing at Pottery Road trailhead has been washed away. Lots of sand flows, rutting on slopes. Other than squishy low bits, surfaces are not too bad actually… as long as you remember those wet roots are super slippery. With today’s sun and heat, things should dry…[Read more]

Surfaces were getting pretty dry this morning… hard to get a grip. This rain will help, and the next week looks sunny and mild. Sweet!
Rob DeBoer replied to the topic Daily Trail conditions in the Don in the forum THE DON VALLEY 1 year, 5 months ago
Ditto that.
Rob DeBoer replied to the topic Daily Trail conditions in the Don in the forum THE DON VALLEY 1 year, 6 months ago
Yup, good to go! New tree down on Pottery east of the split.
Rob DeBoer replied to the topic Daily Trail conditions in the Don in the forum THE DON VALLEY 1 year, 6 months ago
Well, was quite a dump… think it’s worth trying to ride in the morning?
Rob DeBoer replied to the topic Daily Trail conditions in the Don in the forum THE DON VALLEY 1 year, 6 months ago
Jesus. People suck.
