Just to let everyone know, the snowseekers snowmobile club is having their radar run on Jan 13 the same day as our ride, last time it was 1000 feet on the ice, you can run a sled, quad, or bike, or I guess whatever, it's kinda cool if you just want to see what top speed is on your machine is, They only ask for a small donation(or large) to run, all $ goes to a charity. The DNR is usually there so make sure you have a 2013 sticker. My old Yamaha v-max sled with about a million miles on it hit 92mph, plus there will be some really tricked out sleds if your into that sort of thing.

It is supposed to be pretty warm the next few days. Do you guys think it is going to melt the ice too much for riding?

The trails were pretty much down to dirt after we tore them up last weekend. I bet they are more like mud after these temps. The ice on the other hand, will probably still be there, but it may be wet. The water level itself is really low. The entire boat ramp is out of the water. I would bet the water level isn't more than 3' deep near the bike bridge.

Has anyone been down there to see if there's any ice left, Solon will be a mud pit.

How was Solon today? I'm planning on heading that way next weekend with some new riders.
