Not alot of takers this year. I would like to do a ride down the Bonnefield Trail, bu don't know the trails. If I can get down there to explore a little before hand, I wouldn't mind leading one. When does the Tananna normally freeze over enough to ride?

Hey Steve

Dec or after the 1st is usually good, depends on the weather.

I'd be up to doing a little exploring with you. The ride in question is a good one and not much river time (Tim) :) mostly on the flats. You cross the river at the Ice Bridge and then again near Salcha for lunch at the Salcha Lodge. Can make it a loop and ride the pipeline back.

Can we plan on 7 January for the group ride? Will that give us enough time to explore John? I've rode from the flood channel to the trailhead without much problem, it's about 17 miles if I remember. Whatever is easier.

Jan 7th might be close, lets see how the temps go and the river conditions.

We'll be at the cabin between Xmas and New Years, so we'd have to run it the same week as the ride or before Xmas week.

Also, think about the length of daylight on 7 January. Might be tight for a long ride

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.
