My riding partner Austin might be able to swing some days off, or over one of the weekends to ride a couple days too.

How does your group ride, fast & hard, hundreds of miles per day?
I like smooth and steady, 140 miles may be my limit.
Sorry but I am not getting younger.

hardware store is across from the bar right on hw 26 - store is closed- if we get together we can ride some easy logging roads and see if you like it - we ride some trial to but mostly to get to the off trial -were flexible! we usually have a short track of two with us- we only get stuck about 2 times a day but we have shovels and pulling equipment- I am getting older so I don't like being stuck all day any more- off trial is like a fun drug though-fair warning- you might get hooked!

just bring money!

sorry I didn't see you previous post - sorry you got laid off-
there is parking in the bar parking lot - and may be room in the old hardware store parking lot- the bar owner usually plows out an extra big lot for rigs

I have been laid off.
I worked for a company that designed the worlds largest cranes.
These are found on a large barges, or specifically designed maritime vessels.
There were built in deep water ports around the world
I worked in a group that designed & built smaller cranes that are found on the corners of an offshore oil platform. These "baby cranes" were built near the Gulf of Mexico
Due to the falling price of oil, there a few new builds, no new platforms, no exploration. In the past I have worked on 20 cranes per year. In the last 18 months, it is 0.
33% of our crew were cut loose, many more in August.
My area was electrical.

Where is a place to stay?
Any options?
How about a safe place to park?

the place im renting sleeps 6..you are welcome to stay there..im not sure if there is a closed off bedroom..we sometimes ride at night and can be UP late..i usually dont start riding till after 10-12..if u want your own quieter space..u need to book the adventure motel now or it will be booked IF there is snow..if something doesnt change in the forecast..this trip will be pushed to february

what about moving over to residential electric..thats doing pretty good..or like u said u got money guns and lawyers from working the boom!!!

Pay attention to the forecast if rideable snow anywhere 1st week of Jan Mass City would be a good bet. Maybe LES will dump a bunch by then.
