Another 6 inches or so of snow yesterday and trails like this you do not get to see very often. I ended up riding up to the bridge yesterday with the friend of the infamous Ohio Pooper who years ago was caught on my camera doing you know what which gave him his nick name. Brian and Mike and I headed up to the bridge and up thru Indian River, Mullett Lake and Cheboygan to Mackinaw City. Only a few ripples in the trail and 99.9 percent of the time super smooth riding. After a quick stop in Mackinaw down the other side of the trail to Carp Lake, Brutus, Pellston and Alanson to Indian River and back down to Frederic for a burger at the Swamp. All in all a perfect 170 mile ride. It just doesn’t happen like that very often. Pretty quiet here in Frederic this morning and i got everything plowed again. Still supposed to be some more snow. Pics below from our trip. Thanks for checking in.

The snow is supposed to start about noon and we are supposed to get another 3 to 6 inches. Trails are still holding well from what riders tell me. Cold is supposed to continue thru next week. I need to get some gas in my sled as when I got back from Sundays ride my gas light was flashing. Not sure where I am going but thinking about jordan valley. Thanks for checking in.

Basically the same map, but I just lowered the lower end a little bit. Not that I don't think the higher end of the range is possible, it is, but I think it'll be a bit wider than a 3" spread in some of my contours. Please see previous posts for timing and impacts! #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey #straitsarea #soo #newberryFINAL UPDATE! SNOW TIME!
