GREAT LATE SEASON RIDING CONTINUES!
No real changes with plenty of snow and trails in overall good condition. Typical end of season conditions with loose sugary snow on top of a hard flat base. The recent sunny days are creating some icy corners and a few water holes so stay alert for changing trail conditions. Near towns roadways are starting to lose their snow cover. This time of year snow melt can change trail conditions quickly with running water so stay alert in the wetland areas of Trail 418 and just east of AuTrain. Our Bully is still down with a blown turbo charger but the good news is the Big Deere will be home and back to work today. Other good news is Snow in the weekend forecast that will hopefully freshen the trails up a bit. Warm weather is forecast for next week so get out and enjoy the trails while there is still some great riding to be had. Ride to the Right and Stay Tuned for updates!
