Who Else Is From Michigan On Here?

[skidooboy]

live between lansing and flint. have been outwest a few times and love it. we just got back from togwotee. we were there all last week, had a blast. cant wait to go back. usually we ride northern ontarios backcountry to stay away from the racers on the trails in our own state. we've been riding there about 10 years now, and i have never saw more than 14 people in one day riding. now that we ride off trail we never see anyone. rarely do we ride in michigan anymore. if we do, it is grand marais and the offtrail areas there. we have a friend who grooms and works on search and rescue there. so, he knows all of the out of the way places and short cuts. ski

Rode Fri,SAt,and Sun and did a lot of digging.We are going to Centenial to ride Snowy,s on Jan 10th if anybody is interested? I make 3 or 4 trips west each winter if anyone is interested in hitching a ride!Merry Christmas! and STANDUPNRIDE! Doug H.

I live in lake linden, and ride mainly Houghton and Keweenaw counties. We planned our first ride for last weekend, but our big snow storm turned out to be rain. The great start we had this winter is almost gone.I'd guess there's enough snow to trail ride, but not enough to go off trail. I guess the sled can sit in the garage a while longer, and I can sit in front of this thing daydreaming about riding. It can't be much longer now.

I'm from the thumb area, Sebewaing. I used to ride Canada & U.P., but with the Canadian exchange rate at such a disadvantage, we found riding Togwotee, Wy. is much cheaper. Now I haven't bought a Mi. trail permit in three years.

I live between Grand Rapids and Lansing, have friends with a place at Houghton Lake and another friend living near Munising. I've probably rode every trail system in the state and prefer the Seney and Big Bay areas because there is actually some good off-trail riding to be had in those areas. Never been out west but I will SOON, really gets my blood boiling lurking on here and reading the stories and looking at the pictures, its awesome.

 

[twincat800]

i ride st.helen, went to luzerne past sat

 

[olymon]

Charlevoix lower michigan. Riding the fields and power lines quite often. I like to get up to the Lanse area to ride on all the logging roads. West of Lanse on the power lines too. Both sleds are only 136's but it seems to be enough most of the time. Besides getting stuck is just a lesson in what I did wrong, maybe I won't do it next time

I pretty much ride the keweenaw and the western UP; great riding on and off-trail as long as we keep the thaws away!

I gotta put a plug out for the www.Johndee.com event that is coming up February first. Great riding, Event T-shirt, Entertainment, Banquet Dinner, raffle silent auction; All in all this is an awesome time! You can register at www.johndee.com All this is benefiting a Make a Wish family from Drummond Island who will be there for this event.

I hope to see you out there, this is our third year and it keeps getting better!

Mtnboondocker, I just got back this morning from Centenial, were to tired to ride when we got there on Fri. morning, but we had beautiful riding on Sat.Sun. and Mon. was SUNNY! Jumped up on top of the ridge just above Lake Marie and was all untracked.Watch for rocks! When you are at Tog. try and make the trip to Brooks Lake.IMOP its some of the best riding around.We have a group of about 20 going to Brooks on Feb 04-08. Mom's Motorsports has a group at Snowys about same time as you. If you have lunch at Brooks ask Joe Hutchison for some pointers on where to ride,he knows the area like the back of his hand!
