Re: [RC] [RC] Fw: Hopkins Creek ride story part one - Kristen - heidiEven when dry, the footing is fantastic, only a few areas where the deep sand makes it a real good idea to take it slow. I'd imagine that wet conditions only make the footing better. Wet on sand can sure make for super footing. That was what happened at the one Oregon ride I vetted that had a sub-3 50-miler. It had rained the night before, and it was nice and cool, to boot. And there wasn't too much up-and-down to it. Darla Westlake won it, and she came in with her eyes as big as saucers, talking about how she had NEVER ridden like that in her life! And coming from Darla, that's quite a statement!
