Some "old men" buddies and I ride out by the tennis complex.
There are usually students riding there, but we old guys like to stay in shape, too.
Haha, my mountain bike is in the corner of my dads shop somewhere with flat tires.

Oct. 3rd and 4th works for me!!
What are you all thinking? Michigan this time?? I've been to Kalkaska a bunch of times with my snowmobiles and atvs, never been up there with the jeep, and I here Cadilac has some good trails too...
I really don't care if its the Badlands or Mich., just want to hook up with all you guys again and do some more wheeling!!!
Camping? or hotels??
Lets get something nailed down so we can plan it!!!!
