My Sourlands report from yesterday: The dirt was so tacky everywhere around the park. Probably the best Sourlands conditions I’ve encountered. I decided to get to the tech as quickly as possible since I started my ride a little after 5, so I climbed the pipeline. I hadn’t climbed that in...

Nice. I don’t know chunky monkey well enough. I actually am thinking of going down there now and riding.

Okay, where is this feature???

Would love to get a little group together for Sourlands. @gmb3 what day next week might work?

Okay, I'm breaking down the tape and do not understand how you rode out of this feature so smoothly the way your back wheel got stuck between the rock and the log. Look at that! And, somehow, the force from that hole sent your back wheel a few feet up in the air. I need to retake high school...

That's hilarious. I've ridden past that every time I've ridden at sourlands and just never pieced it together that that's a line.

What trail is this feature on? My annual trip to the Sourlands will need to be soon. I always try to either revive an old feature I know about, or stumble into a new feature I've never ridden before whenever I go. This would be a new feature for me, I've just never seen it!

Occasionally, I peruse Strava heat maps searching for new trails or trail networks I’m not aware of. Tonight I decided to look at the Mahlon heat map... and I came across something I’ve never seen before on a satellite image: Don’t see it yet? I’ll zoom in further for you: a plane! The...

Awesome news. Hoping the trails drain quickly from Sunday's rain and it stays dry next week for my (at least) bi-annual trip to the Sourlands.

I took a more generous offer from Pinkbike and shipped these to Michigan. Shut ‘er down, @Patrick !

It didn’t take that coyote much convincing to move her den. Lol

I have to pay you for that now?

Pink Bike listing: https://www.pinkbike.com/buysell/3035536/ I'll meet anywhere around northern NJ if you'd like to try them on or are interested in buying! Asking $300 for the shoes ($370 new and only worn once before I realized they're too wide). Willing to listen to offers.

For those who don’t understand the new blazing: is it essentially just all of goat ridge that’s closed?

Candy Ass is in great shape right now, I haven’t seen it in any better shape than it is right now really.

I’m glad someone caught that, lol. That was my limit on track standing 12 miles into an allamuchy ride.

You're a Candy Ass if you don't watch my video of Candy Ass from yesterday. I believe this is now the one and only full ride through of Candy Ass on the interwebs.

Alright, let's get some crowd-sourced opinions here. Will the typically-muddy areas of Sourlands be ready to go by mid-week this week, with the abundant sunshine in the forecast through Thursday? I'd love to come down and ride the lower trails out and Chunky Monkey up top, but would avoid if you...

Conditions will be excellent today. I have 1 downed tree to report on the Chips trail. It will need a chainsaw.

How did the biggest park-parking it get even bigger???
