The DCR just announced that this season's Spring mud ban is over. The signs are in the process of being taken down, but the Fells are open to bikes despite any remaining mud ban signs you may run into. I am personally very pleased to see that the "as needed" ban wasn't just an excuse to have longer bans, but that they can also lead to shorter bans as well. Now, if only that mud ban would be fairly applied to all trail users . . .
