My last ride of the season! (probably)
Had to grab it one more time before our grand mal meltdown rolls into town. Lake Durant toward Newcomb served me well last Friday. And I’m always one to keep going back to the well until it runs dry.

After morning fog and drizzle lifted and sun broke through, I couldn’t stay inside and let the afternoon go without spinning track. Especially […]
Perkins Clearing snowmobiling play day
Even in crappy winters, Perkins Clearing is ole’ reliable. Not a big playground, but almost always gets the job done.

Decided to park-n-ride from the end of Pelon Road so I could roll it back onto the trailer after today’s ride for the […]
