Hey just trying to see who all rides the Jordan Valley Trails, and what machines they are riding. I have two sleds, but hopefully the one will just be for company this year. I'm rocking out my HAWK. What about everybody else>?

I ride an old xlt that I have extended out to a 136". An extended steering post with a riser on top of that. Stock bore 580 motor with slp triple pipes on it. It's a fun and light sled. easy to spot with the volvo snowflap ;-P Charlevoix towards Mancellona is the normal riding area. This year I'll be riding a red gen II that I'm converting over from a twin to a ultra 680 and putting a 136" finger under it. Extended steering post and riser to make it a little more stand-up friendly.

Who rides these areas and knows of good backcountry off hwy 131? We followed some guys a few years ago across the tracks and went off trail for a while, but i do not remember where, but it was a good ride. who's up for exploring or showing new people where to trek>?

I have a cabin on the north end of Mancelona(North of old ski hill). My neighbor Jim is one of the groomers for JVT. I refuse to ride trails weekends due to the snow crosser wannabees. We do lots of sunday/monday rides though. Also the locals have some awesome Wednesday rides.
