Last year we had a awesome spring ride with a bunch of guys, thinking about doing it again this year in a few weeks, anyone interested? We can ride a little bit of everything from mild to crazy. Here was last year on April 27th:

I'm in (Saturdays work best). Aside from my belt problems at the end of the day I could not have scripted a better end of the season ride last year. Depending on how April pans out I plan on doing plenty of Spring riding, so if the decided date is a conflict for someone let me know and I will see what my schedule looks like. (Or, I could just put together a different spring ride up this way on a different date - not to steal your idea Lenny :) )

Only thing is I now can DEFINITELY guarantee I won't keep up with you Lenny, especially now that you got your new RMK.

If i dont sell my sled i would like to make it. Not sure how i would get there cause i sold my truck. I would like to take the trails. Is the main trail from Bergland towards your place a year round trail Lenny?

I am very interested in going this year, I missed a fun one last year, should have room for 2 more on the 4 place - leaving from New Prague MN which is about 40 miles south of Minneapolis so if you are on the way and need lift let me know.

Well here is my deal guys. My son is coming in from a 9 month deployment on the 18th of April so the 19th-20th is no good for me.

I'm thinking the 12th may be the best time because if we wait till I get back from Norfolk we may not have good conditions,,,you justnever know

So the 12th sounds like it may work?

I be there just let me know the weekend. The M8 is having some issues but not enough to stop me. Saturdays work the best for me, but open to Sundays also ( makes for a long ride home ) Last year was blast and was hoping there was going to be another one. The crazier the terrain the better.

12th works perfect for me already saved the day to ride.

if you want crazy terrain than well have cooksend or Byrn71 help lead it cause these guys will rip like you have never seen. Cousinolaf and his buddy Randy rode with us and man these guys will tear it up also. I watched Greg (cooksend) rip a sick side hill on some real serious terrain and the track hit a buried log and he washed out, I asked "where were you going" and he pointed "up there" and I'm like "there's no line" but he saw one and went for it. The nice things about this spring ride is that we can find terrain that all levels of riders can ride,,all at the same time. The less skilled riders just take a lower more mild line, that's all, while the crazies aim for the top!,,,,lol

I promise you guys we will have a blast. We can cook out in the bush, spend the entire day. I may just be able to offer free lodging to anyone but obviously limited space will be an issue. I have room for 12 so that's something to think about also but I need to talk to my wife and ask if the dates are available, I'll post that real soon.

Sounds good Lenny, I will plan on being down there on the 12th.

For anyone in which the 12th doesn't work (or those who want to do both), conditions permitting I plan on doing another Spring Ride on the 19th. Most likely will be somewhere up in the Keweenaw, but can go south of the bridge if that is more convenient for people. PM me if interested.
