Popular Post dinneR ★ Posted April 20, 2019 Popular Post Share #1 Posted April 20, 2019 The weather looked nice so I thought it would be a good chance to ride a century. Traffic is light in the park and the road is closed to cars from Taggert to Signal mtn. I made it to Flagg Ranch before the road was closed and I had to turn around. Signal mtn was open which is unusual this time of year. It was snow covered and icy near the top. I saw another rider go down trying to ride through one section. Yellowstone in the distance. I was able to get to within two miles of the south entrance. 7 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdc2000 Posted April 20, 2019 Share #2 Posted April 20, 2019 Nice. I only went as far as Colter Bay. I walked through that section on Signal Mountain where the ice and snow went all the way across the road. No wind also, which is unusual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rode the first snowy section, then walked the rest. It was super icy. The lack of wind was nice, until I came out of the Jenny lake loop. It kicked up and was windy all the way back to Moose.

smudge ★ Posted April 20, 2019 Share #4 Posted April 20, 2019 Shadows can really mess up a road this time of year. Other than that it looks pretty nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The snow and ice have melted. The rain held off. Very light wind. Not bad. 45 miles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dottleshead ★ Posted April 21, 2019 Share #9 Posted April 21, 2019 40+ miles is a good ride. It only consumes half a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdc2000 Posted April 21, 2019 Share #10 Posted April 21, 2019 I am hoping for at least one more day of decent weather next weekend for another ride. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next weekend is the Bluebird Classic. Weather looks iffy. The last opportunity to ride the park road without cars. I rode to the Granite Canyon trailhead today.
