Rain Rules!
01/20/2012 - 10:45 | CWilson | Rides & Trailwork 0

I am really glad the rains have finally started!  I have anticipated this rain more than any other time I can remember. We need the snowpack at the high altitudes, and my yard is looking very dry!  The bad news is that we have to cancel our monthly club ride for tomorrow. We do not want to damage the trails that we put so much time and effort into maintaining. Riding in the rain is not necessarily bad, but any time you are leaving an imprint deeper than an inch, you are creating unnecessary damage to the trailbed. If you cut into the subsurface, erosion has a foothold that cannot be stopped without countless hours of human intervention. Protect the trails by riding responsibly. Tomorrow, stay home, stay dry and come out next month on the third Saturday.

Rockville/Lagoon Valley Recap

On Sunday, Nov 13th, four FATRAC members travelled to the Fairfield/Vacaville area to sample some out of town singletrack. It was another great example of the awesome riding conditions in NorCal in the Fall. Even after the rains the week prior, including a sprinkle Friday night, these trails were in great condition.
