Weirdly, both rain gauges are showing it got .1" this morning. I didn't think it was supposed to rain today. Probably a little sloppy at the moment, so I closed it back up.

I rode the Colonel today at noon and it was in great shape.  There were only a few wet spots though I did see a couple of tree roots.   

I rode Saturday and noted some broken boards on the lead up to the bridge below the dam.  The Trail Gnomes fixed those right and pretty.  You really must appreciate the Colonel's Trail Gnomes.  RESPECT.

I got a ride in last night. A few wet spots but it's riding great. Our anonymous "helper" put sticks in a few so I cleared those out. A couple of drain-clearing parties and we'll be all ready for summer.

Mark Rosen (Norwegian Blue) has been a real trail ninja, getting out there and replacing boards as they wear out. It is much appreciated. 

On a completely related note, the ENTIRE Monty Python catalog is coming to Netflix April 15. Our quest is at an end. God be praised!

Shouldn't that be "And now for something completely different"?
