Nutter and Yukon I understand the rules and the supposed processes.   The OFSC buried their heads in the sand for years while people like myself and a few others on here tried to get involved but were prevented.  I contacted the District a number of times and was told get in touch with Carden.   Many on here and around have acknowledged the difficulties with Carden.   The District should have stepped in before the loss of trails.  Isn’t that the purpose of having a district?     And the OFSC overlords looking down on the districts and clubs?  What is their purpose if not to make sure things run smoothly?   Look at the support now that has come out of the wood work!  The number of volunteers who have put their names in to help.  Did they just materialize out of nowhere or were they always there frustrated?

If the support was there those trails never would have closed. Every Club and District has to play by the same rules, when one doesn't have the support to be a legal corporation it becomes a liability to all the clubs. The club also had a choice to become a chapter which doesn't have to have the same legal structure, the few who were still involved didn't want to go that route.     I had a chance to ride with Jeff and Kelly Earl last season, I have no doubts about his abilities and intentions to lead and help grow further support for ODSC,  and to extend their territory to include reopening the trails to Coby and Norland. 

The sad part is those trails should have been allowed to be opened last year by ODSC   The support was there last year as it is this year.    

On my third 900T Have let them idle for about a minute for regular trail riding, bit longer after a hard run across lake, railbed etc. 14,000 km traded 14,000 km still have  10,000 km 2024 900R No turbo issues with any of them. Like you said we still let our farm equipment idle 5 mins. It’s working hard at full rpm 

Unforetunately at this point, Districts are not able to exceed the total kms that were approved from last season. They can only put back, what was agreed upon form district trail reductions.   We still would have to give up trail kms, to make up for new ones or reinstatement.   Just a fyi, there is support to get Carden trails back, but there.is a process.   You heard the old saying, once a trails gone, its hard to get back.   Keep going to those ODSC meetings!9
