Who’s got first hand experience? I did the Michaux dualsport for the first time last year, how does this compare?

This always seems to be a busy time of the year for me. I havnt been since 2011-2012? Ken and I drove up and camped together. I believe Sam and trialsrider were there too. Was a good time. Comparable to Michaux but its two days of riding! I remember the options as good.

Some pictures should never be rediscovered :barf: :killingme:

This event is a lot of fun, one I miss.

Go and have fun. Depending on the options, it is no harder that Michaux. :deal:

I have done this ride 3 times. Its not the hardest ride in the world, but it always fun and really nice scenery. I am actually thinking of doing again this year.

Who's in?

Is it the same route both days?
Or is it like 7 Mtn where Saturday you are on your own and Sunday rollchart?

In the past two completely different routes. Sunday usually takes you through the ATV park. I forget what the ATV park is though :huh:

Saturday runs a southern loop getting close to the northern most parts of the 7-mountains routes. Sunday loops thru Bloody Skillet ATV and the famous water crossing. Both great days. As with all events working with the DCNR the best single track options are a battle to keep on the route. Conflicts with a 2 day vintage trials event in Ohio (that also runs a dual sport ride) so will not be attending the Dabbers event however it is a great time. The flyer stating 100 miles of bad roads is a perfect comment.
