Figured I had better recreate the best thread in the AM/Trail forum.

Moose Mountain Trails - Saturday, September 22
Rode T-dub, Toothless, and ROS today with HD, x-ker, DMR for Life, and Todd. Not exactly AM trails but anyway...T-dub was snowy and slick up top, the roots were sketchy in spots...Toothless was in great shape, and ROS was pretty good but wet in spots (definitely want to stay off of it now after the rain).
We saw a couple of the ROS builders and stopped to chat, they are definitely doing an amazing job on the trail. Remember their request for nails...we'll drop some off next time we're up there. It's a small price to pay to ride the trail they put all of that work into.

I think everyone who rode was smiling so that makes 5 x
Goat Creek/Rundle Riverside - Saturday, September 22
trail is in great shape; couple mud puddles, but no snow. The ride is wet, but not sloppy wet. Really great ride this time of year.
As for smileys, lets say 1 of these guys for seeing our buddy kicking ass in the Melissa's half marathon on our way past the golf course. It also gets a since no one wanted to stop for lunch mid-ride at that awesome noodle place in Banff.
From now, dracones. System requirements. Whoever wants to know what the h3ll that means, look it up. Or go back in time 2000 years, meet some people I loike.
never gets the prize for the forum geek, I have a geekier suggestion. Bigsteve will agree. Let's stick to a format for trail conditions report. Easier for people to read. Something like this.
Saturday, September 22 - Sulphur Springs
Trail conditions are great. The mountain is wet , but only in higher elevations. Lower trails are still (quite) dry and in good shape. Honestly, we haven't ridden Sulphur on Sat, but a buddy did, and this is what he said. We ripped the DH trails. But wore some lycra, so we can post here. (optional to this would be the smiley system - 1 to 5)
Mt 7 - Sat Sept 22nd - ya I know not in the AB, but enough of us venture there I figured I'd in this tasty treat of a trail system.
"too Tacky, slippery roots, epic roosts" were words muttered in the p-lot post laps. Conditions I'd say are the best if you like a little "slip and slide" with your corners. Hope that lives up to the "new standard". Qn'r

just a quick note - if you're planning on leaving things for the builders, they had mentioned to me that we leave any items below the ROS sign at the top of the trail
Some nice shots there!^ Why isn't it just trail conditions for all of Canada or something?
Feel free to start up your own thread with east coast conditions.
Previously, the most active thread in the XC/AM forum was the Alberta trail conditions thread. A lot of guys in the Calgary area all use it to get an idea of what to expect when we ride. And not to be a jerk, but I don't care what the current trail conditions are in other areas of the country (unless I'm heading out there to ride)!:P
