Definitely yellow jacket 🐝

Yeah, I was stung 12 times last week in my vegetable garden. Five more hid in my shorts after I ran inside. Felt like Violet Beauregard for a few days

I like yellowjackets and consider them very friendly.....

How's the rain looking over that way today? Hoping to head there tomorrow

I’m in Bridgewater, it’s been coming down pretty good since about 1 and is not supposed to stop until around 7.
Maybe late in the day it’ll be ok if there’s some sun tomorrow, but at best your bike will need a good washing after.

How are the new trails at Cromwell? Still tore up by heavy equipment?

Muddy in spots yesterday, I got a ton of rain near Clinton last night so I think it would be sloppy

It absolutely poured here last night. 4-5 miles from CR.

Thoughts on ridability today?

Muddy in spots Monday, I got a ton of rain near Clinton last night and the night before so I think it would be sloppy

Yeah, more rain last night. Likely a bit messy.

It wasn't too bad actually.. There are puddles, but not enough to be a deterrent. The bike can definitely use a bath afterwards but its certainly ridable.

A BIG tree down on the path leading into the black loop behind the ball field (if you make a left after the bridge).
And another one on the red bypass that no one really takes.

You will be fine. Some puddles here and there. Check out the work on red

Yup, hardly any water or mud out there.

Diggin’ (pun intended) the work on red!

That lower section should really shine in spring when that spot identified as bog/swamp for 4 months! Only did it going up, looking forward to hitting it coming down.

That upper switch back, rode both ways, was terrific coming down!

Nice work and thanks to all the volunteers as always!
