I was thinking Saturday.
Weather.com says it's 'sposed to be 29 and sunny. To me, that means Carhart bibs and flannel shirt.
I've ridden there once before in very similar conditions. If the ground stays frozen, it won't be too bad. If there is any melting at all, last weekend will look like a walk in the park.

I wouldn't say we had a bad time. My buddy and I had studded out tires up the night before, so it was kinda like cheating...at least for a while.
I don't think Limitless had much fun though. No traction, fightin' his bike and being down right cold. Which ever weather dork said it was gonna be 33 was waaaay off target. I don't think it got over 20 the whole time.
A side note on Haspin: if you really want to enjoy the place, I suggest a selling your bike, getting a labotomy, leaving your helmet in the truck, buying a quad, and only ride it WFO with your head firmly tucked up your ne'er regions. You'll fit right in.

I had fun, but like you said it was cold and I couldn't get any traction. My bike didn't want to stay started and did I mention it was COLD (& wet after falling in a few creeks). We'll have to do it again when it's not so cold and slippery, that way I won't hold you guys up on every hill.
As for the riding, it looks like an awseome system of trails from what I've seen. The trails were pretty good and the hills were great, but the fields are so rutted that I could barley get out of 1st gear safely. The MX track looked good except for all of the ruts, but they will grate it when the ground isn't frozen. I didn't see any doubles/tripples on the track we were on (they have 2) which is good for me cause I can't jump for sh**.
The only major problem I seen (aside from the ruts) is all the idiots. This was a really slow day for them because of how cold it was, there were only like 20-25 people out there, but half of them were just plain stupid. There were several quads doing 40-50mph through the parking area (15mph zone) without helmets on! :uh:
AL - If you plan on riding there I would do it on a weekday or when it's really cold. I couldn't even imagine the amount of idiot's that would be out there on a warm weekend. :worship:
Unabiker - CHEATERS!!!!! :laugh:
