Which is why I said I've heard it's just like Cadillac and Gaylord in the weekends. I'll drive to the Western UP 9+ hours before I'll ride in Cadillac or Gaylord on a weekend.

I didn't drive that far south but 104 from Red Creek east looked real good and cato should be getting the lake effect from tonight we ride this area all the time and only go north out of desperation we might still go to the hill on Monday buddy took monday off so we can ride, our club maintains the 104 trails from Red Creek west Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You woman! If you have the time blocked off still why not give Lake George a try. I have always had a great ride there. Easy places to stay right on the trail also.

It was a shit show on the Tug yesterday, lots of our trails cross private land,..with plenty of signs "stay on trail or stay home" "riding off the trail will cause closure ".. One area plastered with these signs owned by a horse farm..10-15 idiots just ripping up the pasture,. 2 guys stuck, sleds parked right in this guy's back yard.., 2 mile road ride or this generous land owner allows us to cut through his property as long as we stay on the trail, out of states don't give a fuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idiot's have no respect for other's property and before you know it it's down the edges of blacktop roads to bypass pissed off land owners. The kid wants to go up next weekend and 2 buddy's want us to stay at their place in Redfield but I don't think it's a great idea with a 12 old kid on the weekend in that area. Think we'll look for something east of there where it's hopefully a bit more quiet. Hate to piss freinds off but to me it ain't worth the risk.
