Thanks for the heads up, we'll get out there in the next couple days to take care of it.

Rode this for the first time this weekend, great trail!! Awesome flow, and some tighter spots as well. It's not my gf's favorite trail to ride, wish it wasn't so far from Detroit!

Is the trail still in good condition?

The trail was in excellent condition yesterday!

Rode the trail today with my wife. As always the trail was in superb condition! She did very well for her first time. Perfect day for a fun ride! Then took a dip in Grand Traverse Bay to cool off.

Was up north for a wedding this weekend and got a free morning to ride VASA. Such a great trail! Makes me wish I lived in the area and could ride it every day. Keep up the good work up there guys!

Up from downstate again and it was a beautiful day for a ride! The trail is in great condiiton for the most part. No downed trees to impede a nice blast through the woods. The only issue I had was some of the trail is getting pretty sugary. Mostly in spots that surprize you....as in halfway around fast blind corners that throw your line off and you suddenly headbutt a tree...as I did today

But the great weather, awsome scenery, and the 5 deer I came up on (includung a fawn that ran the trail in front of me for 100 yards) made up for the slight mishap I had.

I rode VASA again on Wednesday afternoon. It was a much welcomed mid-day break from my conference at the GTR not far away. Trail was in great shape and I look forward to riding it again sometime, probably at Iceman this year. So easy to get to from TC. A couple of guys were out documenting trouble spots for proposed re-routes (John and Glen? did I remember that right?), thanks for the work on the trail.

With the odd/dry weather we've had this year, the very start of the powerline reroute has disintegrated with seriously ugly brake bumps. We may need to look at armoring or rerouting the first few feet there. Other than that, the trail was in GREAT shape for this time of year!!

Can anyone comment on the status of the trail this week? I'm visiting in-laws on the peninsula and hope to get a few laps in if conditions allow.

Bring xc skies or snowshoes. Just came back from the Kalkaska area, 20+ inches of snow on the ground.

What are the Trail conditions, snow, How did the clean up go ? Thanks

Rode the singletrack from the lot until halfway between 7 and 8. After that I rode the ski trail and snowmobile trails back to the parking lot. Fat bikes can ride everything, it would be very hard to ride it on a regular bike right now. I would guess that it will be a lot clearer by next weekend. It's not supposed to that warm this week up here.

I cleared a couple trees with my folding saw, and picked up lots and lots of sticks and branches. Not everything by any means, but anything that needed to be ridden around.

What are the current conditions of the VASA Singletrack? My son has a soccer tournament in TC this weekend (5/18) and we're considering bringing the bikes. Thanks!
