Why else do guys move? A woman! She's from here and I moved over before we got married back in 93. There are some PA people here too, even from the same area as I'm from.
Cabin is just a few miles from a connector trail on the south end of the loop. Cabin is the primitive type with no plumbing, so a lot of people are turned off by that.
I also ride a lot down in the Laurel Mountains as I have a friend that lives there and knows all the local trails besides all the state marked ones.

Looks like we got one hell of a storm coming finally!!!Can't wait just fired up the sleds tonight to make sure there ready!!I used to work for Teynor mobile homes here in Bucyrus, and they also had a sales lot in Wooster that I used to do alot of work at but now there daughter owns it and it's called Lincoln highway homes I believe unless they sold it!!

Lincoln Highway Homes packed up and left town a couple years ago. Nothing there but the one that used to be the office.

The Winter Storm Warning looks good for you in Bucyrus. 8"-16" by Thursday evening. They say the heavy line is from Cleveland to Mansfield to Marion.

Snowing like its going out of style right now here in Ashtabula county! 3rd big snow storm in about 10 days here. Greenway trail is sweeeeeeeet right now.
Might have to go for a spinski again tonight !!!!!

Well......so far we've gotten around 10" and there now saying could have a total up to around 16-20....I'm right on the Crawford(Bucyrus)/Marion county line.....and now the wind is getting strong....according to weather.com it's at 16mph.....major drifting going on....my son and I was out earlier and it was nothing but a plow on the sleds....but was still fun, just waiting for day break so we can see where in the hell we're going instead of having snow flying over the sleds!!!

Update - We did a very quick 75 miles. Rode from Pymatuning to the Greenway, almost to Warren, Oh. and back. We're getting a mix of freezing rain now which is keeping the fluff down. Trails are awesome!! The back roads which aren't plowed are "to die for" !! Supposed to turn to all rain by morning. Yuk ! Tons of snow up this way though.

We got it good over here too. Every bit of 12" its rain now but when it changes back it should lock up nicely.

WE GOT SNOW finally got at least 12in here in allen co. cant wait to get the f kitty out to try all the goodies i put on :banana: :banana: :banana:

over in Hardin county the airport measured 20",,,, been out riding all day!!!! FINALLY!!!!

by the way,
Im Brian, and Im addicted to sledding
I live outside of Kenton (not Canton)
I usually hit Newberry a couple times each year and was introduced to Fredrick last year and had a blast,,,,
Also ride here every time we get 1/2"

Ryan, see you in Newberry in February!!!!

Well here in Bucyrus we got around 16" to 20"......was out till I lost one cyl. on the moto ski.....don't know what's wrong....getting spark....switched the coils around to see if that was it and it's not....changed plugs....seems to be getting some gas but maybe not enough....don't have any idea what it is unless it's a valve and it appears to have compression...but the 78 Panther ran like a top.....any ideas from you all.....and Hello Puree......now you ain't really to far away I know some ppl from Kenton that work at Whirlpool with me.

Hey dw, what part of pa did you live in? I live by the laurel highlands. How's the trails walt? We got rain down here, and i would like to do some testing.

Have not been back out since the other night. We had an incredible amount of rain come down after we got in and most of the next day. We had so much snow though that I don't think it hurt the trails too bad. Maybe made them a bit icy with the big cold snap right now. I know it knocked the crap out of our back road riding!

im in lima

I was up along I-80 between Grove City and Franklin. I ride a lot down in the Laurel Highlands as a friend of mine lives near Thomas Mills on route 985. He rides and helps create and maintain a lot of the private trails north of route 30 above Walets.

Walat's is 30 minutes from here, we usually unload their or at a friends house on 985. Those trails and fields are nice when the posted trails are buisy and beat up. Wanted to ride on sunday but the rain took the snow. Next time your heading this way let me know.

Hey SAM5828, you related to Steve from Wapakoneta? I used to play hockey with him back when Lima had a rink.

nope im origanally from kalida

Well, the party is over here in NE Ohio. Ashtabula County went from "as good as it gets" to bare grass" in a couple of days. Bummer. Oh well, it was good for a few hundred miles.

Hi,

My name's Frank. Moved from Massachusetts to Northeast Ohio a little over a year ago. Been riding sleds since 1965, mostly in NH, Vermont and Maine. Last year I made a few trips to Colebrook and Pittsburgh, NH but need to find out where to ride out here.

I'm hoping to get up to Michigan this winter and would like to get together with a small group who know the area and accommodations.
I have (2) '03 Yamaha's now; an RX1 and an SX Viper. I've had both Polaris and Yamahas for years now. My son is back in Masachusetts and is eager to visit and ride.

Maybe we can get a small group together for a trip soon?

Best regards,
Frank

Hey catrules2000 let me know when the lake freezes and you guys get together for some racing. I'll bring some friends and come up hopefully we can ride up.
If theres enough snow, if not we'll putem on a trailer and come up. BTW we always ride the poker run thats when they have it. We're only about 30mins south of the pond. Watch out for stumps then again with all the rain probably dont have to worry about them.
Later
Manson

Boston Heights huh? Nice area good snowfall!!! Welcome!!!

Live half way between cleveland and akron. There use to be some nice farms and horse trails to ride when i was growing up around here, now it's all $900,000 homes. Oh well, thats what trailers are for i guess. Spent the last 3 yrs. in the Tug Hill area, goin to the U.P. here shortly for obvious reasons. Wish there was still some open land around here, all the snow was pretty much wasted.

Hey spaceman, 81 citation huh?, brings back fond memories.

I haven't started it yet this year. Its kind of a hoopty but good for kids.

Hey Manson, there has been way to much rain so far for Grand Lake St. Mary's to Freeze up. All of the local streams and rivers run into it and the main Spillway and just pouring over. All that in a nut shell means there is a lot of current underneath whatever Ice is there and it is VERY UNSAFE! I will let you guys know though if we do get another good Freeze on it.

Hey everybody, make sure you say hi to Prick......I mean Wink......lol
He and I have ridden together for numerous years now. He started riding a couple years after I was born which menas he is old......lol Just messing with you Randy! I will get over soon to get you the money for the Stickers. I should be heading to Ft. Wayne in the next week for Business, I will drop by the Shop!

Keep the snow chants going guys, season is not near over yet!!! :banana: :banana: :banana: :beerchug: :beerchug:

Sue (and Hubby Joe aka Sweet Pea)
Streetsboro, OH -- Yup, totally understand how there "used to be trails until they built homes" -- the one's that went up around here weren't $900k, though, only $300k...

My "ten year anniversary diamond" is my 2002 ZR600 CCLE EFI
His latest acquisition is a 2005 F7 Sno Pro (orange)

I had a 2000 ZL 600* that got wiped out in an I90 bridge incident on our way home from one of our favorite quick getaways in Chautauqua County, NY. Our other quick getaway spot is the Allegheny's (usually stay at a friend's cabin in Tionesta or mostly at a motel on the trail in Marienville). Our annual BIG trip will be Jan 29 - Feb 5th when we visit friends in Christmas MI. :banana:

*By the way, I think if I still had that ZL600 I probably would've sold it and wouldn't be riding sleds anymore. I had to fight to keep it going straight and it's a trail sled. I thought it was just me until I got my ZR... WORLDS of difference!

Hey Mike, I'm from Van Wert too! :banana: Age 44. Just got into sledding about 3 years ago. There's a snowmobile club in town. They meet the first Sunday of every month at the "I Don't Care" Bar & Grill. :beerchug: I think the meeting starts at either 6:30pm or 7:30pm. I'm going to try to make it to the meeting this Sunday night. If you're there, introduce yourself. Also, there's a 25 mile trail over in Hoagland Indiana. It's about a 25 minute drive from Van Wert. Didn't know if you'd heard about it yet. Look me up sometime, I work at Wells Fargo. My current sled is a 2003 570Z, but I'm getting ready to trade it in on the new Cat 4-stroke (Jaguar Z-1).

What happened to the idea of winter having snow on the ground?

I live in the Toledo, OH area and I'm looking for other riders interested in weekend trips. Ideal location would be about 2-4 hours away (either OH or MI area is OK.) I've been riding for years and I'm new to Toledo area, so I don't know anyone around here! I've currently got two 2005 MXZ 600 and I like riding aggresively when practicle...

Please let me know if you're planning any week trips and I coould tag along?
