Ken
and other club members were planning on going to
Arrows,
Last spring a small group of us went down for the WUDI
spring ride, Near Hot Springs, Arkansas.
The trails are great and guides to the Otherwise well marked trails are
available for all skill levels. We had
fun and I am looking forward to going again.
The trickiest part is finding a place to stay that is reasonably cheap
and nice. So, that is yet to be figured
out. If you are interested in going, contact me and I will coordinate for our
group.
Here are the details from the MN guy who pulls it together,
John Brunsgaard (of Golden Eagle's fame):
Can you believe we've been doing this for 7 years now? Man,
time flies when you're having fun. Or even if you're not.
;-) Jim Cook has set the dates for this years ride. Here's what he says about
this years ride time and location:
-----------------------------------
The location will again be at the TrainRobbers Trail. The club has voted to support us with the ride with trail work and guides. The date has now been set (today, as a matter of fact). The unofficial dates of the unorganized non-event are Friday, Feb 25th through Monday, Feb 28.
-----------------------------------
So we're again in debt to the ADR (Arkansas Dirt Riders) for
hosting us and prepping their awesome enduro trails
for the ride. I didn't even get a chance to ride all the trails last year so
I'm looking forward to giving it another shot. Seems like I
was always in that Big Nasty ridge trail area, for some reason. It was
all fun riding. I haven't talked to Stewart Hall yet but hopefully the hardcore
folks who stick around after the weekend will be able to ride at Chadwick for a
few days with the best Chadwick guide anywhere!
The email list and the "spodelist"
are building fast! Good to see so many folks wanting to go to this ride again
this year. The ADR sure have some great trails and it's always fun to go see
what Stewart has for us.

Web
site and hot line needs to be updated with 2005 info
·
Some
Potlatch land W of 23 was open for lease. If a few key tracts were not
available to us, we could end up not being able to connect certain trails
together. The plan is to find out what, if any, tracts got leased and try to
see if the leasees will work with us or if we can
bypass the tract.
·
Ken
Fastner, the DNR, and Washington County Wheelers had
a meeting. The DNR should have noted our concerns and objectives as well as the
Wheelers’.
·
Ken
made maps of the trails used in the Enduro, complete
with trail names. It’s hoped that the DNR will use the names so that everyone
can use the same names and know where they are talking about. An attempt to
scan the map is shown below.
·
Since
the closest town is Stone Lake, that will be the town name, not
·
It
was decided to try to get the Shakopee snowmobile club to flag as many events
as they want to. We would offer them more than what we paid last year, because
they are self–sufficient and do a very good job. Any dates they don’t want will
be offered to the Grantsburg Hockey Club at last year’s rate.
