We will be heading out 9 a.m sharp ! and splitting up in groups depending on riding skill and riding style.We will basically have a crazy off trail group, a trail group.The trail groups can break into smaller groups to aid in riding.You get 30-40 sleds in a group and its a pain waiting for everyone at intersections.We will all meet up for lunch probally at the brew pub in grandmaris if the snow is good.Well let the fun begin

Christy wanted to know if MrSled would like a challenge. A challenge of the ALL YOU CAN EAT PRIME RIB kind...as long as Rich ate all the trimmings...
You know, I'm not sure why it was so damn funny that night, but seeing Rich's face when Tom placed 3 pounds of marbled fat onto his plate when Rich wasn't looking...I don't know how hungry a guy's gotta be to keep from puking, but Rich did it!
Just one of the many memories made during the very first TY ride...from your humble correspondant.

There will likely be over 60 riders of various desires and abilities on this ride.
Ideally, you'll want to meet folks over a few beverages the night before you ride just to get acquainted and talk about riding. You can normally set up a group then but if you're not able to make the evening festivities there will be no problem finding a group in the morning as everybody sorts out pretty well.
In my case the type of group I ride with often depends on who I was hanging with the night before. I tend to ride in the slow groups if I spent too much time with Johnny Walker or Jim Beam.

Yamaharider18, I've got a thread going called Vmaxjohn's Trail Group or something like that. I tried to describe the kind of ride I'd like to put together. Friday will be mostly trails, but we never pass up a play area. Not sure of the total miles for the day, it will be up to committee and trail conditions.
Anyway, read through and see if that kind of riding suits ya. You're more than welcome to join!
