Yep about a foot of snow on alexander ridge. Dont even try to drive back there as the road is not passable. I will probably try to check out the trails as soon as the snow comes off so i can give people an idea of what things are like. My guess is that the main parts of the trail will be rideable even though through the winter thaw cycle. I will give an update on what it looks like.]]>

On the road, I have been parking near the stoplight by the football field, riding up the hill past girl scout cabin & the golf course, a few back neighborhood roads off the flat part by the golf course, and either down past the B-ball courts or all the way out Brown Road past the nature center, then up the hill to the light house, road not plowed so back down, and loop around the lake back to the car. Not bad for a road ride, lots of climbing. 9 miles. I'm on a mt bike though, there is still a lot of salt and cinders on the roads.]]>

Ray has a pretty good thing going. Hopefully he's willing to disclose any secrets about what he went through to make it happen! Good luck!]]>

Trails no good...but the roads are worse (lots of people crowding path around lake and potholes are a threat). Heard good things about Frick, but I have no firsthand knowledge. Rain in forecast this week so maybe that will take a few inches off the snowpack. Rays, Rays, Rays...]]>

Just a quick update from Moraine. On Saturday March 6 there was between 4" and 10" of snow across the trail area, with no tracks whatsoever. And the parking lot hasn't been plowed.

You should talk to Ray of Rays indoor park. He is a wealth of knowledge. First thing is insurance. I remember talking to him and he found a great deal on insurance. Something like 100-200 a day.]]>
