Trails CLOSED!! - Lee @ 10:15 EDT

All trails are CLOSED for the season! Due to the nice warm sunshine and rising temperatures this week the trails are closed. Hard to believe that we needed snowshoes to tap the maples yesterday with 24-30” still in the woods, but the sun has melted large sections of trails out in the open. Hope some of you got out over the last week to get in your last “fix”, there was some good riding in places. If we get a big dump of March snow, check back to see if there will be any late season riding, but for now we are done for the year!

Nice Area wide report from Tom's site!! 3/3/10 - Lee @ 07:23 EDT

This is a report sent into Tom's Trailconditions site:

Hey Tom, looks great in Canada. Great here too! I rode 250 miles the last 2 days. Only bad spots were near strykersville and in the valleys and towns like Holland Springville. But as u go up and away from civilization it got awesome! Plenty of snow, plenty of grooming, plenty of fun. Monday I rode toward Letchworth, S43 to S33 to S34 were great luv those wind mills. Then it got thin near letchworth so I headed south to Bliss on the super fast and smooth RR bed/S30. Took it all the way to Machias then up 2 Sardinia on S32 to C4 to S49A to Colden and they were all real good. Way better and way more snow south. So on tuesday I headed south again. [b]So here's ur perfect ride in WNY! From Holland area take S46A off C4 to S36. Stay S36 until it sadly ends at C3 near Arcade. Tri-county drifthoppers are awesome all of S36 was grommed. So I decided to ride their great trails. Took C3 to S31 to Rushford-awesome-then took S30 to Machias then took C3 to Ashford Hollow-really awesome-gased up. Cattaragus county is gods country/beautiful! Then unfortunately I had 2 head home. Took C4F around Springville to C4 then to C4E to Boston. That's when the fun ended when I hit the Boston powerline no grooming all moguls all beat up. C4A thru Colden was being groomed so it was partly good then back home on C4 thru Holland bad in town good up on the ridge. So I think if I have any strength left I'm going south again today some where in gods country plus its sunny. Ride on before its gone! WNY trailblazer-Jay

Don't know how they will hold up through the weekend....so get what you can now. They have backed off a little on the temps for the up coming week, but it is nearing the end.

Trials are OPEN for the weekend 2/26/10!! - Lee @ 17:23 EDT

Tri-county trails are OPEN for this weekend! The Arcade area has about 6” of new snow that fell overnight and today. The trails are in fair condition, with some of the trails being a little rough due to the traffic late last weekend when the temps were warm. With the warm sun and traffic it left us with nothing to work with. The groomers will try to get out later tonight into the weekend, but there is not much to work with and the traffic may “push” the snow off the trail. At least there is enough to ride for this late in the season, but the 30 degree temps in the day and sun will not be our friend this coming week.
