Sterling Forest Trail Conditions

[Captain Brainstorm]

there is going to be SOME road through the golf course and such, but its not busy so not bad.

I don't mind a little road as long as the rest of it is worth it, the juice being worth the squeeze. Where is the trailhead/turnoff coming down from Ringwood?

This isn't something that I'm gonna do anytime soon, but rather when the weather is better and I have a few hours to kill since this seems like it will be an epic-length type of ride, especially since a good portion of it will likely be spent trying to figure out where the fuck I'm going. Some of the best rides have started out like this.

Stateline that spits out onto Sterling Mine Rd.

Just not now. I'm in real bad shape and will hold you back. 🤣

Listen, I'm not exactly setting any new records these days. Driving my son around from meet to meet, school to school for the last year for him to get recruited has left him in amazing shape, me not so much. I'll bring beer and make it casual.

Yea, I'll definitely hit you up once I get my legs back under me. Me, you, and AS. The land of the misfit toys.

There's also a route that involves riding someone backyard, having a box match and a call to 911 if you're into that type of things...just laying out all available options!

I'm anti-trespass, not how I roll. Goes back to getting shot at with rock salt as a kid by a blind woman in the Catskills.

You and me both. I was just referencing an episode from a dew years ago.

First hand experience is always a good teacher. Interesting detail about being shot by a blind woman, a first for me. I sense a story behind it...

If you get no-scoped by the blind woman, you were going too slow.

Damn, and here I was about to show you my shortcut through the private golf course. 😆

Not sure how much snow cover is on the trails, but is it rideable with 2.4” tires?

Reports said less than an inch in Tuxedo. There was no snow on the ground prior to yesterday so I'm going to say that it should be fine.

Outstanding…!

I’m in ringwood, pretty much the same trail system as Sterling and it’s all clear. Some ice patches and cold as hell, but no snow.

Gonna try for a short sunset ride. Heated glove liners and sock covers have answered all my cold concerns so far.

Any snow in Tuxedo/Sterling on the overnight?

About an inch.

We got an inch or so in West Milly,
so it'll be snow covered crunchy frost conditions
