with enough snow to groom only one club groomed ..well the prize goes to turin ridge runners for grooming saturday nite ..thank you ..i will be sending my money to your club next year ..it was a disaster to ride the trails on sat and look at my present club with anger ..holiday weekend... finaly the predicted lake effect snows comes..many people drive hundreds of miles to ride at the only place to ride with fresh snow..and and established base ...since early january ..gas is at $4 a gallon..hotel ..plus all other expenses around $500 a weekend ..and all i heard was i`ll never come back here again .. the bread and butter of many families rely on sleders coming to tug ..ok this was a holiday weekend u get to start up the groomers ..plenty of snow for grooming ..all the clubs blew it ..you have done more damage to tug hill then you know ..well i hope your happy tug hill is now known as a crappy place to ride ,,again ..thanks to the one club who had to didn`t have a groomer on the hill ..is the only club to groom thank you turin ridge runners ..the rest of you can hang your heads in shame as the trailers headed south on the thruway ..

I rode Sunday Afternoon. Sno Pals trails were Beautiful. They were groomed Saturday Night. I spoke to a few older Gentleman at Montague and they said the trails coming from Highmarket Area were pretty good. I find it HARD to believe that the Ridge Runners were able to groom all of it. There a good club but Supeman thay are not. You have to remember that all that wet heavy snow came Saturday Afternoon and most clubs Don't go out to Groom Until well after Dark. Had they all groomed immediately it would not have done any good because of all the traffic. Plain and Simple there has not been enough snow and cold temps this winter and way to much traffic when the rumor mill gets churning that there is. Some of you whine asses should attend a club meeting to find out why your not getting your $25 worth. There open to any member. All those people that won't be back, well there the minority. Most people I spoke to realize that this has been a crappy winter, they have the common sense to know that old Mother Nature hasn't really been working with us. It seems that common sense with some is in very short supply!

for the record im not whining. what I am sayin is that on the hill there was an abundance of snow. even before it started to really snow. we were riding as it snowed ,came down pretty good for a while.some trails wernt groomed thats all, and thought it was odd, for the amount of base there was. It was a good ride!

Monday managed to pass a groomer on the way back to the truck which made the end of the day nice. We took a wrong turn(s) ended up at the gas station in redfield that ran out of gas an hour before we got there (after going thru trails I would have only takin with an quad). We just made it to ceder pines ha. I hope Sunday's going to be good after this weather system goes thru.

Didn't make it out Friday night but did 101 miles Saturday. Went with 3 fellow dootalkers after meeting up at my camp. Left at about 10am and Just about all the trails we hit in the morning were good, especially the Adams Loop on the SnoPals trails. From there we headed over towards The Sportsmans via Flatrock, French, Carey roads. All were pretty good considering it was just after lunch. Skiped Tabolts by running across the Flow and headed down the Railroad and North South. Both were really good. Got some fuel at Barrows(91 octane, ethanol free) and headed to the trail head across the road. Beautiful all the way. Heading back towards Tabolts corners was rough but it was late afternoon so it was to be expected. Pretty rough most of the way back to camp(Rowsam was great) until we got past Fork road on the Worth road and then it was like Rt 81. I as well as Tim_B, recon701 and one of his buds had a great day. Really glad to meet them. After the clubs groom tonight and the temp drops I bet the trails will be beautiful tommorrow. Wish I could go But I'm a big nascar fan and its Daytona 500. Everybody take care.
