Visiting from Oak Ridge TN and decided to ride LCHT with some SC friends. Great location and conditions. Thank you Greenwood riders for maintaining this trail. Overall conditions was outstanding. Trail flow and type variety was exciting and interesting. Rode the 21 mile northern loop from Fell camp. www.strava.com/activities/666777655/shareable_images/map_based?hl=en-US&v=1470525601Weather was hot avg 95 degf but the amount of cover provided by the trees abated the sun nicely. Worth many more trips to his location. Visited Abbeville post ride for some late lunch and a brew..

Great ride at the Crackerneck WMA. We were able to work out the schedule to ride the last Saturday of May offered by WMA and DNR folks. Conditions were outstanding for an early start and a fine morning of gravel grinding with friends. The next scheduled ride window is Sept each Saturday from 0600 to 2000. I highly recommend this for some fun time out in the woods close to Aiken. We end up with 27 miles and a 11.1 mph avg with some fun exploring. The jeep trails and main roads were clear. The fire breaks are still feeling the affects of the ice storm but are going to be cleared this summer per WMA.

Trail was hit hard by the ice storm. The single track is almost impassable. We ran the entire section and it was slow going. It is going to take a significant amount of volunteer time to clean up. We started today by clearing the nature trail from the trail head to the bridge. We will focus our near term attention to getting the nature trail fully recovered and then on to the single track. This will allow for access to different sections of single track to clean multiple sections at a time.

Road the entire loop on 2-1-14. Upper/Northern loop was outstanding and in very good condition. Lower/Southern loop from metal bridge to Fell was epic conditions with much blowdown and trail debris. Overall not very wet and rideable. Great time!

We rode the entire loop today. Heavy leaf cover and slippery roots. Some winter blow down that needs clearing this spring but nothing overly frustrating or extreme.
