Nice!

We gotta get you guys to come out and ride with us out is St Claire PA. just north of Pottsville. It's tight single trail stuff that's a little rocky and rooty. Some people bitch that its to hard but that's what I learned on so I like it.

Yeah, Rob thought the snow flakes were too big so he sat on the couch with his extra strength vagisil. Me and Trevor drove out.

It was 6 of us in the morning and a few others showed up later.
Tom is setting this up as a public "facility" near Riverhead on Long Island... I liked the "indoor" parking area.

He setup a "family loop" for quads (more like a fast hare scramble course, some intermediate trails and a few hero sections... tight, muddy, icy, logs, roots, tight turns, hill climbs right out of a hairpin turn with ice at the bottom, etc. Very hard to keep your feet on the pegs. Messy stuff.

I'll bring the helmet cam next time.

These are pics of the easy stuff. Note the signs he has up on the trees, etc. We were turning off the "family loop" onto some other trail.
He needed help burning in the trail.... ROOOOOOOST !

We are up on Long Island so St Claire is a 4 hour ride for us, one way.
Do you guys ride with Gallo? He lives around there and rides all winter in that stuff.

I like rocks but all we have up here is dirt, sand, roots and sand.

Haven't heard of it.
Says it has 40 miles of technical trail.

The St. Claire area is pretty good. RORR hold their enduro in that area.
It's known as one of the tougher races.
