It rained off and on all day and it's raining right now. The forecast calls for rain through 3AM Friday. It's going to be muddy and soft. I wouldn't go.

i guess we will see what happens then. btw where do you live. and it looks like the rain is over by the weather map. also the rain that was just falling is very light just enough to keep the dirt damp.

22305. All I'm saying is, if it were me, I wouldn't go until we had at least another few days of dry weather (whenever that might be :rolleyes: ...friggin spring.)

People way underestimate how dry 495 can be. I was their earlier today and it started to rain, but it was barely noticable at the jumps because the leaves got most of it (it wasn't raining that hard though). If it's wet tomorrow then we simply won't jump. Not a biggie for me as I live within a 5 minute ride from 495. :cool:

BTW: I'll be there.

You forgot to mention it was on a hardtail and it was closer to 8 where you landed :D . I would have hit the drop but my bike wasn't set up properly :angry: . This tuesday hopefully. After that we gotta raise it to double digits because the tranny's so steep.

btw: Sorry Dan, but I overslept. I got there at 10:45, sorry about that.

The ladder drop is about a 5 minute drive from 495 and only a 10/15 minute bike ride, along with the creekgap (it's been in one of my videos but I'll post a pic of CJ hitting it tomorrow). We'll be riding/building their this saturday. I'll put up a thread about it later in the week. The only thing that sucks about this park is that there are never any run outs that don't involve riding into a creek afterwards. :rolleyes: Still fun though.
