With the wet weather and Plan B in effect we’re riding on the road in the park. The roadies went the distance just ask Scott, Daniel, Chris or Garry. Lots of climbing and wicked fast twisty decents. Very cold too.

We arrive at Magpie Campground and check out the trail a bit. It seems OK to ride so we gear up and get ready to go. Just as we’re leaving it starts to drizzle. About 3.6km into the ride its quite muddy on the trail and the drizzle is more like rain. With the memories of last year’s mud fest still fresh, we turn back. Plan B, road ride in the park.

Well we’ve finished breakfast and we’re on the road to the MDH trail. Normally, we’d be in the dark but with Perkins not bring open all night we were delayed a couple of hours and can actually see where we’re going. Unfortunatly what we’re seeing is a light mist and solid overcast skies. Wet trails are bad news but this time we have a backup plan. There is a 20 mile paved loop in the Theadore Roosevelt National Park.
Right now we’re heading up to the Magpie campground to check trail conditions them we’ll make the call.

In a few short hours I’ll be setting off on an overnight drive to Medora North Dakota and the Maah Daah Hey trail for two and a half days of fabulous mountain bike single track ridding.
Not sure how many of the “boys” will be making the trip or exactly what sections of the 100 mile trail we’ll be riding, but its all good! I’m pumped!
Expect some random tweets and posts over the next couple of days about our adventure.
