HOOKY RIDE #9 WED. OCTOBER 21ST

WEATHER PERMITTING !!!! THANK YOU ALL !
LOOKS TO BE PERFECT TO RIDE !

THERE WILL BE MINIMAL TRAIL WORK, although would like help marking the directional loop!

WE DO NOT MEET AT MENARDS, Just a reference POINT for YOUR timing !
GREAT EVENT for BEGINNERS !
If you have a STREET LEGAL INSURED DIRT bike then you do NOT need to show proof of Insurance YOUR BIKE NEEDS to be INSURED & OR street legal INSURED ! NO EXCEPTIONS ! NEED a copy of your insurance in my hand if you are NOT street legal. INSURANCE IS PARAMOUNT !
The BIG LOOP is GOOD & SLIGHTLY CHALLENGING ! The GP SECTIONS ARE READY ! ONE OF THE LAST CHANCES FOR A CORN GP IN 2026 ! IT IS AWESOME ! G.P means curvy section inside the corn field. Exceptionally soft corner dirt. G.P. sections add up to be about one mile & ALL BIKES have to ride those sections with NO GO arounds. FYI: The dirt is grippy, possibly still muddy unlike sand !
There is a 3.5+mile loop for smaller displacement bikes, single track with small jumps, logs, hills . LARGE displacement bikes there is a 3.25 mile basic loop that has some ruts, dips, small jumps .
This is a loop system on private property, meaning all of your stuff is safe & after 3+ or less miles you can come back to your spot & chill or make adjustments, chat or ride till you drop ??
There is a bathroom, as well as an area to rest & chat with others.
Bring your own fuel!
Bring your own food & OR snacks to share as there is a food table!
There are enough chairs or bring your special one !

Meet at ELEVENish (meaning no set start time) though
PREFER 1ST TIMERS HERE to my trails around 11 for an orientation & THEN RIDE/work until you are tired or ran out of time.

Any questions ? Post away ! If you are new to my ride then i will send out an itinerary TUESDAY evening (CLOSE RSVPs at 7pmish NIGHT OF the 27th). ALL THAT RIDE WILL FILL OUT A WAIVER for 2026 & ride at least 2 loops with a rider that knows the trails.. RIDDEN HERE BEFORE BUT, FIRST TIME THIS YEAR then fill out a waiver for 2026

We do NOT meet at Menards. Menards is just a reference point for your GPS timing. Actual address will be sent out at RSVP closing TUESDAY eve 7ish!

PLEASE DO NOT COME BEFORE ELEVEN as i am busy OR NOT HERE !!

The trails are great for beginners as well as experienced ! The GP course can be outstanding for ALL SIZE TYPES of BIKES ! GP COURSE is all soft dirt inside a CORN CROP, which is JUST CURVES !
HASBEENS ALWAYS WELCOME even after rsvp is closed

THANK YOU TO ALL THAT MADE THESE RIDES POSSIBLE !

LOOKING FORWARD TO A BUNCH OF SMILES, before, during & after !

The main reason my rides are mid-week is due to spousal obligations, chores, meetings &&. Also Wed is my most controllable day in the week.

I DO HOPE TO HOST A FEW WEEK END EVENTS !
