in Group Rides, Bike Trips, and Events

If anyone is looking for a good or bad reason to get up north and ride some awesome single track then you should head up to Ride the Keweenaw. It gives you a nice taste of all of the trails from Houghton to Copper Harbor and everything in between (Maasto Hitto, Churning Rapids, Swedetown, etc).

Really need to get up there this year. I would really like to get up for the IMBA Epic Ride grand opening festivities over Memorial Day weekend. Now with Pitch Black moved I may get up again for the Copper Harbor Fat Tire Festival over labor day.

Chuck! You're alive!!! Now answer your damn email.


PS: Anytime you want to head up I am making frequent journeys to the land of Gitchee Gumme.

Any advice for someone planning a last-minute trip up there this weekend?  I'm guessing the campgrounds will be mostly full.  Any ideas as to where to stay on the cheap, and which trails to ride for 2 or 3 days worth?  I was looking around and it seems like Copper Harbor, Swedetown, and the Michigan Tech trails look promising.  I'm mostly into flowy to technical singletrack.

I'll be there all weekend tearing it up like we do!!  So Stoked!!

Change of plans so I won't be up there this weekend.  Maybe not until next year, I blew a lot of vacation for Moab but don't regret it for a second.  Have fun!

Tim, give me a call on Saturday. I'll be one of the ride leaders at the MTU trail ride. 608-515-4080

Sorry I missed ya Dave.  I don't do the group rides cause my riding style doesn't fit in with them.  I go slower than everyone climbing and faster than most on dh parts.

We rode those trails a little on monday on our way back through, they were sweet but I was injured from a wicked crash on sunday so it just hurt, I want to go play on their wooden ttf stuff though it was sweet.  I cleaned a lot of it but nothing that tall cause another wipeout from high up would have been awful.

I wish we could have stuff like that here!!!!
