Title: Mauston a month away Post by: northernnorm on March 13, 2018, 08:22:54 AM Going to ask for help setting up once the weather warms. I was there last weekend =still 2 inches snow lots of places so froze under that white crap . Only a few pretty small trees to cut - Not sure if we are going big on the rotational scoring ,but if so we possibly just need 6 sections times 4 loops . Since it is impossible to use hilly terrain without ending up with sections that are time consuming to walk . Hopefully weather is nice and a host of people will come out and play ride on Saturday .
Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: northernnorm on March 14, 2018, 11:43:41 AM GOOD news and BAD news I found out Pats commitments with R Y P have him riding trial de Spain in Cali April 15th so its good in that sections will probably end up tamer less scary not quite boring for champs and bad news that he wont be around to see his miracles. Hopefully some other first class riders like Brad/ Phil/ Waldo /Jellenstien /Hirt etc. will be around to do the wild stuff. Cheers

Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: club95 on April 04, 2018, 10:19:31 AM 10inches of snow here yesterday >:(
Mauston 70 miles away. Hope they got a bunch less Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: 2whlrcr on April 04, 2018, 07:55:17 PM Noel is probably stranded up there and that's why we haven't heard from him. Hope he has enough provisions.
Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: khub on April 05, 2018, 02:16:51 PM Noel is there right now. Said they got 4 inches of snow and it is mostly gone now. Has 7 sections nearly done, so looking good for the event. See some snow predicted for Sunday, but warming up by Wednesday. Should end up being a good event, even if winter lasted a little too long.
Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: northernnorm on April 06, 2018, 08:02:10 AM Just a reply I have 5 sections 75 % done . so still plenty of work . snow gone on flats -driveway and field its shrinking in woods but still unrideable so I headed home will be able to finish Thursday through Saturday no problem. bigger issue comes if I have to back off the top lines if some reason it Is still too slick
Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: northernnorm on April 06, 2018, 10:08:29 AM I stopped and invited Jay from Jays power in Reedsburg to come out and promote his new Gas Gas dealership. So hopefully he will be offering demo rides on the enduro models after the trials sunday. He said they would probably floor a few trials models soon also.
Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: club95 on April 06, 2018, 04:40:58 PM Might get some rain next week. Rain can be a good thing post frost to settle the ground and get rid of the slickeries. I am hoping to try and get there Thursday or Friday.
Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: northernnorm on April 06, 2018, 07:04:29 PM That would be great we need to do a LOT Thursday and Friday hope you can make it ,, LOTS of leaves to move I have a super backpack blower its e z to run but sucks to try to navigate my damn steep slopes often its hard footing as too wet or too dry makes a challenge . keep track of forecast I imagine that will have a factor in when outdoor work is suitable so far it has been garbage for weather Im pissed I stuck around here for this horse crap should have hit a mountain or island oh well don't have the money anyway
Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: northernnorm on April 06, 2018, 07:09:12 PM ALSO I got a call from a GUY WANTING TO REVIVE THE WIERD RGN SERIES which tracks events of all types but u ride same bike so he requested hed like to use Mauston which would mean knobby class stuff - guys on 250 to 450 enduro bikes trying to ride our novice line.. Kevin and I thought maybe we could live without the noise and destruction that would likely cause . Maybe promoter will come and check it out and possibly do it later in year
Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: northernnorm on April 07, 2018, 09:01:10 AM FOR STEVE_ current weather underground forecast has Friday being 65 % chance of 3/4 inch rain Baraboo area so for now it may be Thursday will be best day t o get stuff done the poorer forecast has Sat still up to 1/2 inch rain then around freezing sat nite then low 40s and clouds Sunday so kind of sketchy ,youd think we had enough garbage weather for march and April but a big break to warmer is not happening. No Mosquitos at least
Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: club95 on April 07, 2018, 12:52:13 PM I’ll shoot for Thursday. Let u know for sure Tuesday afternoon.
Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: khub on April 09, 2018, 10:23:44 AM Due to cold temps predicted for Saturday night at Mauston we are going to delay the riders meeting to 10:30 with event start time of 11:00
Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: club95 on April 10, 2018, 11:28:14 PM Still planning on Thursday Noel. Looks like best day for work.
Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: club95 on April 11, 2018, 05:04:21 PM Noel Smage - are u going to be at Mauston tomorrow?
Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: 2whlrcr on April 11, 2018, 07:25:12 PM Don't suppose there's any chance of moving this back until the following weekend? The weather looks horrible.
Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: khub on April 12, 2018, 09:07:15 AM Due to cold very cold, ice and 1 to 3 inch snow Saturday with more snow Sunday we are delaying the Mauston event 1 week to April 22nd
Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: 2whlrcr on April 12, 2018, 12:57:21 PM Geez, nobody has ever listened to me before...
Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: club95 on April 13, 2018, 09:28:29 AM And probably a good thing they did listen to you. The weather report here just 4 to 8 inches of snow between tonight and Sunday afternoon was some freezing rain thrown in to keep it interesting. May be a bit different for Mauston, but likely not enough to make it much better ???
Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: northernnorm on April 14, 2018, 10:28:29 AM Now the concern is how much precip falls as ICE on my precious trees have seen lots of broken mess before .. We have 7 mostly done and I leaf blew everything so rain could firm up sand wasn't too bad of riding yesterday after small amount of sleet quit falling All week still night time temps below freezing this is crazy at least a few days are maybe hitting 50 wow
Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: 2whlrcr on April 14, 2018, 12:26:45 PM I'm thinking I'll drive to New Mexico instead.
Title: Re: Mauston a month away Post by: 2whlrcr on April 16, 2018, 06:55:57 PM So how much snow did you get?
