Ok, I will the first to admit I am not a perfect rule abiding citizen or the best rider out there and have drifted off my side of the trail but what I saw yesterday on trail 3 from Twin Lakes towards Toivola was in believable and just fricken ignorant.
It goes like this...
A group of about 6-8 go by us as we were sitting by the sawmill discussing our plans. We get going and catch up to them and they were all on the LEFT side of the trail. ***?!?! Are the from a European country or what? I couldn't take so I pulled along side the last guy on the right side and waved him to stop. I know that was stupid but I had to see *** is he and his group doing and if they had a death wish or what. He stops and I ask ***? He say we have communicators so we can tell each other when another sled is coming. Really? I told that was so fricken stupid. To many what is. *** is wrong with people? Stay right and stay alive.
Sorry about the rant but I don't want to see anyone get hurt or die out there and this type of ignorance is going to get someone in either of those situations.
Other than that trails have been good and most people on their side of the trail.

That is stupid....communicators get stepped on all the time and when that happens the word is not getting out to the group. Use of communicators are meant to tighten the group up not spread pack out accross the trail. At least you tried to point out their error which is a good thing.

It's getting crazier and crazier, I didn't see this garbage 15-20 years ago. I had two guys racing side by side on a 90 degree corner in Vilas two years ago. Me coming at them.
I was able to get waaaay right and avoid, but they didn't even slow down. I can still picture exactly where it happened.

If the grade is chopped up bad, I will run the opposite side when on the straights. Chop is smother that way.

X4, but only in a straightaway or on a grade when you can see quite far in front of you. I think 3 in that section is just that! Wooded or obstructed trails, then bad news.
