Great Fall ride - did the lollipop route. The recent rain has eliminated the clearcut dusty conditions. The climb to the bench was in great shape.  The downhill was still wet and got progressively slicker. The steep berms in the last section before the road have this clay soil that makes for some interesting riding.  Greasy would be the word I would use.  The climb up and out felt much easier now that the weather has cooled.
