Welcome to GwinnettBikes.com!
It is very important to keep off trails when they are wet or muddy. Most trails around Gwinnett have been built to IMBA's standards, ensuring that they drain properly, and providing us with long lasting trail systems. However, we are facing an extremely wet year! That being said, trails that usually drain quickly, and even those that we don't usually see issues with at all, are becoming over saturated. In this case, trails are extremely susceptible to damage. PLEASE allow the trails 24 hours after a light rain, or longer, especially when the temperature is below 40 degrees. Building new trails will be delayed because volunteers will have to repair the damage caused by 'Poaching' or riding closed trails!!!!
ALWAYS wear your helmet! On most trails, it's the local rules, but on some it's even the law. My dad always used to ask me before I bought a cheap helmet, "Son, how much is your head worth?" Think about it. Then, wear your helmet.
