With it thawing out today and tomorrow, Sunday would likely be fairly good, a few mud holes but overall great traction. Don't judge it by the parking lot unless it is super super slimey. Some of the mud holes and creeks will likely still be frozen for several more days.

Just got back from the 500 wasn't bad except in spots, and then it was real bad. Rode the new trail over on the 80 for the first time, great trail thanks to all those who layed it out. Would like to offer one suggestion on the new trail though it needs a few corners in it those long straightaways get old.

Hope you got my message. I won't likely be able to ride for about a month. Hope you had a good ride.

i'm not much of a trail person but i really like that section. long straightaways are good. speed is always good.

brian, what's the deal with the month long hiatus?

hell yeah! i'm in for that! i've got a brand new paddle tire just begging to be put on.

i rode the golden eagle enduro at the 500 on my cr250 (now tx246's 250) with the mx setup. i backed off the clickers a couple and put on some ufo plastic hand guards. it was still a pretty stiff set up but i did manage to win my class. :cool:

Depending on when you want to go to the dunes, I may be in.

Cool id be down for an early saturday drive to sahara pretty soon and ride all day. A small group would be great.

I been wanting to try the occra just for a change up but kinda hesitant to go the uncharted waters. dead starts,, trees, pit stops, trees, rocks, trees, wild animals that walk upright, trees..

The 500 is southwest of Stillwater. $25/year annual membership, unlimited access.
The park is actually called "Stillwater Cycle Park". It is run by the city and maintained by the volunteers of the Stillwater Trail Riders. Email me your Name, address, and phone #, I'll get you some info.
