We have had a trip planned for LBL since January but it looks like it might be closed this weekend. Badlands was mentioned as a possible alternate place to ride. If we decide to go to Badlands, I'll let you know.

My dad and I will be there along with two Zuk guys! Weather permitting, of course. It will be the first real ride for my dad's Cannibal.

Jess, you should come out.

GML, I've never been there. Do you know the riding area pretty well? Where will you guys be riding?

I was looking at the website...man they have a lot of rules and want to charge riders for everything! That's crazy! Fortunately we'll be in the toyhauler so we won't need to pay for showers.

The weather in Attica on Saurday doesn't look good at the moment

.45 degrees ,cloudy and 40 percent chance of rain/snow showers.We will re-evaluate weather on Thursday and post if we will still go or not. Gary

It looks like we are going to cancel our April 12th Badlands ride.I don't mind being wet or cold but not wet AND cold.We drive 2.5 hours to get there ,our group decided not to go just to sit in the rain/cold.
Our next date will be the 2nd Saturday of May. Thanks. Gary.

We go to the Cliffs in Marsailles Illinois sometimes.It's only half an hour from our house. It has mainly wooed trails and some hills,but it is usually muddy. Trails can get pretty rutted up.
We also ride at my brothers place in Kentucky , but it is a 6 hour ride to get there,lodging is free though

Let me know if you have any nice places to ride in the northern Illinois , Indiana area. Gary
