Is there any way to make this sticky?  I will be more than happy to try and check Renny for us anytime after a big rain to report if it is ready to ride.  I rode it yesterday afternoon, Monday 12/16.  It is dry enough to ride.  There were a couple of greasy spots, but not too bad at all.

I am not sure who (maybe Blair) has been out there and has done a lot of great clean up work.  Someone hit it with a leaf blower last week and it was like riding the road in the woods.  There wasn't a leaf on the lower trail.  The new section is coming along real good.  The little woods section up top on the main loop right after the 2 bridges is a little confusing.  I think that we need to get a couple of directional signs in there.  If I can help with this I will.  Also, the tree that had the signs for Gulley Loop as fallen with the signs still attached.  I will try and remember to bring a hammer out there to re-hang the signs on a new tree.

I tried about six months ago to get a sticky for each major trail, or section just talking about condition.  Didn't fly

I rode Renaissance at about 4pm on Wednesday 1/1/14.  It is drying really well EXCEPT for the connector trail from up top back down to the volleyball/tennis courts.  My recommendation would be to stay off of that until after we have a couple of days of dry weather.  You can just take the road back to the lower parking lot.  I am not sure if Renny is truly bi-directional but I have rode the main lower part backwards and it doesn't flow too well...
