dweese Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 So winter is almost over and I have been out on the seld zero times. Until today About 150km today. By myself so I didn't push things to hard, hour meter showed 3h20mins of run time. Would have loved to ride longer, but had to trailer an hour each way, and today is the girl friend's (wife come June 19) birthday so I had to be home to make dinner Lots of snow still, trails where about 99.2% covered, got out early and everything was nice and hard. But it did start to soften up later in the day. E106 and OHSR930 junction North to Bancroft Lakes still stacked and grommed, they say there is lots of ice, but I didn't try my luck. Snowmobile bridge in downtown Bancroft, gets you to gas and food. All and all great day, lots of other selds out on the trails. Not sure how long things will last. Calling for warmer temps all week, and next. So if things last until next weekend I'd be surpised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revrnd Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 I did 77 miles on Thursday on the Paudash trails. Good shape for the most part. I didn't run TOP E north of Hwy 118 as I imagine the plowed road would be messy (it was sanded when we did have fresh snow). On the E107 reroute, the Eels Lake Rd. was completely bare w/ a bit of bank to run along on. The West Rd, was a bit icy. There was muddy patches starting to appear, so I don't imaging that will last too long. E108 was rough west of the "temp" jct w/ E107. I turned around after a mile. The rest of the E108 north & TOP E from 118 to the clubhuse & Hwy 28 to the Tallan Lake turnoff (I ran Eeels Lake) was in good shape as were both of the Eel's Lake access trails that Paudash grooms.

I'll Ride Anything Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 Ran 150 km or so on Saturday east out of Coe Hill, rail trail was a tad bumpy but good snow cover. E trail west is done, mud and rocks. Heritage trail and lakes all great (Limerick, Mephisto, Green and Weslmekoon (sp?). Maze also very very good. Very warm later in the day, if the sun hits it she's gone. So warm today (Sun) we just locked 'em up for the year. If your desperate and don't care about the sled possible to get a dirty day in, otherwise see ya next year ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
