Well, a few years back myself and a friend travelled across Country Road from Heart's Delight to Carbonear. He was generally miffed and lost his cool with me about having wet socks. I still remember is finger pointing tantrum when I suggested we stop while he wrings them out, "you know, and I know, that these socks will still be wet."
Anyways, now that that's off my chest! It was enough for me to avoid riding there for a few years; convinced my judgment was wrong about the trail quality. It was dumb of me to listen to that childishness, because that's one fun trail! Confirmed yesterday with a couple friends.
Heart's Delight - Carbonear, Country Road

Also, if you're interested, we explored a few other trails. They were a hit as well (thanks Eric)!
Bay Roberts - North Valley, Farm Land Roads around The Pond that Feeds the Brook

We mostly took photos of the water works, but large sections of the trail are dry. Waterproof boots, or boot covers, would be recommended so you can ride on the pegs vs. lifting your feet. It's mostly 2nd gear riding and easy on the suspension: as long as your minding the big rocks that protrude from the trail bed.
This is definitely on my list, along with Daniels Cove Road, as a future mainstay of riding the Baccalieu Trail.
Cheers
