Picked up a honcho, and having a blast so far. Been romping around Raceway Woods and Veterens Acres. Looking to get out with a group for some runs, anybody in the Algonquin area? Dan C. |

We (NIRC) run in Chicago, Roselle and out by O'Hare. You're welcome to come out anytime. How are the trails by you? Can you take pics? |

Thnx for the quick response  The trails out here are fantastic, I would say something for everybody. Lots of wooded forest preserves- like busse woods on acid basically. Not flat by any means.Should be able to get out and get some pics on Sat. at Raceway Woods, I'll post them up in this thread. |

That's raceway woods on 31 before spring hill mall. There's also an entrance off huntley rd. Huge place and you can work on trails people don't mind. I've wanted to get some guys together to have a gtg there.

Just rolled the guardrail yesterday! The creek was raging fast. Suprisingly the place wasn't to buried in snow, no snow in the runoff area just west of that creek crossing. And the wind isn't bad in the woods. The new mtb trail was pretty cool to run on as well. I'm going to head out to Raceway sat. morning if anyone is interested |

Are you guys available Sundays? That's the best day for me but if there is a big gtg on a Sat, I'd really try to make it! or You guys could come out and join us for a gtg. I'd like to run once or twice before the NWITTC April 14th. I'll post a video of one of our comp spots. Last edited by johnnyh66; 03-20-2013 at 07:56 PM. |

I'm open both days. It'd be cool to get a good amount of rigs out. The more the merrier.

I'm in for sure, all we need is a time. Less foot traffic in the morning/but cold. Dog walkers and possibly bikers in the afternoon/but warmer. the weather looks ok for sat. chilly and sunny, and possible snow on sun. either day works for me...hope my wheels get here tomorrow  |
