Spring conditions

Trails are good to ride. We are in that nice time between when the snow is gone but the mud is not out yet. The ground is still frozen underneath, so riding is best early in the day, as on warm days the top will thaw and get soft and muddy. 

If you arrive on a particularly soft and mucky day, please ride elsewhere. There is a small window of a couple days as the thaw comes out that the trails are soup, and your ruts will last all summer.

Spring cleaning has not happened yet, so you will find lots of sticks and some trees down. Please throw off anything you can, as it helps speed up the whole process!

We are always looking for people to take a walk with the leaf blower. Get in touch with Gearheads in Petawawa if you can help out.
