ToSlow Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Anyone know why these trails are not getting groomed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volunteer2 Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I was gonna post as well. I had planned a ride to the area this AM since it is real close to me. Buddy went out yesterday later afternoon and said trails were real rough, and turned back. I always like to ride that area once or twice a year but have not had smooth trails. Thanks to all the info here we can decide where to ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viperules700 Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I went to cones toga lake today. The trails were smooth sailing even thru the lake. Looks like they were all groomed last night. Came back home the back way (not b203) via the duck pond and only a few sled tracks on a freshly groomed trail all the way back to just north of st clements, before we hit rougher trails once we turned back on B203. Rode Elmira yesterday and was getting a little rough but still good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh come on lucky, crap isn't a good way to describe Arthur trails. That club really tries hard, they just get a ton of traffic from a bunch of different directions and are a main fuel stop too. I have rode thru there various times on a weekend and it was good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

volunteer2 Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 hey lucky2 I was actually planning on riding your way this AM. I have never been there but always wanted to see those trails. Maybe this weekend. Was looking on interactive map. The trails are only accessible from Belwood Lake? On the D4 trail guide the 126 runs to 201. Map shows your trails connect to Grand Valley. Any help is appreciated Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToSlow Posted February 23, 2015 Author Share Posted February 23, 2015 there are a few trails that run through, best would be come in from alma or stay north and drop down, let me know when you are planning, i would very much enjoy riding with you; also grand valley trails are in rough shape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volunteer2 Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I am not to far from Belwood lake and like running the Cateract trail there. Have always turned left and headed to Belwood so once and for all gonna go straight thru. Even if I can't get out of your area another way I just want to see the trails. Not worried about quantity of miles. Friday night I will make a plan I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
