Finally, we had the opportunity to get out and ride the trails. We rode trail 7 up to Gaylord. It was in fantastic shape. So much to ride when the trails are as good as they are right now. Spoke with other riders who had been up to Indian River and they reported it was great all the way.

Gaylord Area – Jan. 24
The riding is excellent.

Then we turned back taking trail 7 back to where it intersects with 4 not far from the motel. Rode over to Lakes of the North. Great conditions too. The roller coaster hills along Mancelona Rd was the only area where there were rolling bumps.

It was just a great ride, and the outdoors is so beautiful with the snow still hanging on all the trees. A group from the motel had went over to Jordan Valley and could not stop telling how smooth that trail was, and as always felt it was extremely beautiful.

We’re warming up a bit today with a high of 18. There wll be alot of riders out this weekend. We have been booked for some time, and most all the area hotels are also full. Drive defensively and safely. Enjoy the snow!
