Trail cutting

[Chippertheripper]

^ so, so jealous.

[theothersean]

got the big field mowed down this weekend , plan to lay it out different for next year, more open stuff, less tight corners .

Wow. That looks nice, Sean. I have been out clearing the trails around my place for 3 weekends in a row. I am exhausted, and I still have miles to go. Many of them are still impassable. I can only hope that some of the other users step in to help out. The October storm was the worst I have ever seen, in terms of creating trail obstructions.

started to cut some single track today , moving a few sheets of corogated aluminum from an old fort the kids made many years ago between the rocks, the leaves beneath me started moving , I saw white fur and first though skunk , I tried getting up the rock on the left and kept slipping back down , then I saw the face , it was an opposum , gladly it scurried into another hole in the rocks , it will for sure not be happy when we start tearing through there on the bikes .

Sean...did you buy that land behind your place?

yup, we are up to 45 acres now and just shy of 12 miles of trails and counting

Oh man. I am beyond jealous. You literally can shoot shotguns off your back porch! Tell the Mrs. that we say hello.

will do , and yeh , not just pellet guns like last time, full on shooting .
though we do at least go out into the field so we are sure to be beyond the 500ft mark from my neighbor in the event that they decide to put up a stink , we will be with in our legal limit .

I was at my range just yesterday and thinking "Wouldn't it be nice to have land so that I wouldn't have to worry about whether the skeet/trap area is open". So I shot slugs at the 100 yd. range instead. Sounds awesome!

Hey Sean whats going on...I met you this past fall on a ride out in central mass. You had brought your KLR and I was on a beat up XR650L. I was looking for some more places to ride come spring time and ended up getting directed to this website and noticed your name and found this thread. Looks like you have quite the setup at your property!

hey, welcome aboard ,

yeh I have been cutting some of my own tight trails . I'll let you know if we are riding some time, though it would be tight on the 650.

[robs400]

Yea, that would be great. I agree tho about the 650. I am half a$$ looking for a woods bike. After putting over 3k on my bike this past fall I have determined that I need something lighter and shorter. I love the 650, but for the amount of woods riding in my area I would really enjoy a smaller bike I think. I'm open for suggestions???

Buy Sean's KLX250! I had an older KLX250, and they can be made into really great woods machines, with very little work. They have a low seat height, and handle really well. Power is adequate, but the 6 speed tranny is excellent.
