We had a short day today because of our club dinner. We hit the trail around 10am and had to be back by 5pm. We took trail 3 north to Watersmeet, MI and then trail 2 east to trail 3 north. The snow started to thin out today, but there is still enough to ride. The further north we went, the deeper the snow got. We arrived in Rockland, MI around noon and went to Henry’s Never Inn for lunch. We ordered 4 bowls of soup and 1 chicken sandwich. The place was a little busy, but it took them 2 hours to get our food. That put us behind schedule so we had to hurry the rest of the day. We took trail 3 north to Twin Lakes and gassed up. After leaving Twin Lakes we took trail 109 south to Sidnaw and gassed up again.
We left Sidnaw at 4:30pm and pulled in to Gateway Lodge at 5:30pm. Needless to say, we made some pretty good time.
Each day the trails have deteriorated due to traffic, but there is still plenty to ride. The corners are starting to ice up, so make sure you watch those!
