- Day 1 of the 36th annual Michael R. Burlingham Memorial Six Days of Michigan, Organized by the Cycle Conservation Club of Michigan on Thursday July 23, 2020. This is the first part of day 1 called the Sandtown Motorcycle Trail. The riders in our group are Jim Ozinga (My Dad), Doug Brys, Dave Kidd and Myself. We rode 106 miles total for the day across 3 different trails. The second loop is the Danahar Plains Trail that will be the focus of Part 2 of this day.
Nice riding. Did that just last week with some friends and it was tough. We arent very experienced on single tracks like these and it took us 5.5 hours including many breaks.
That is so cool that they have “motorcycle specific” trails. Ohio needs to do that.
I dont think Ohio will ever have trails like ours
Not a lot of elevation change. Some fairly technical stuff every so often. Trails were pretty overgrown since no one could do trail maintenance. You know, that Rona...I’d rate it at a six....
It sounds like either you're running the needle in the wrong clip position or you have the wrong needle in the bike.
Yeah, there is a tiny rubber seal inside the carb that blew out, had to do an emergency repair mid-week, after the second day the bike would barely run.
The tiny jet block gasket blew out and was sucking in fuel...it's common problem on the 2017 mikuni carb.
The nice thing about the Mikuni is that it is designed to be accessed. My KTM 200s Kehein PWK had the same issue - the little gasket blew out, and was allowing my main circuit to bleed into my pilot/slow circuit.
That is the next trail on my list, I have a place in the UP and want to hit all the motorcycle designated trails. It's hard to tell form the go pro footage but is there much change in elevation or hill climbs? How would you rate difficulty from 1 easy to 10 hard?
If you ever need a riding partner just let me know. If safer riding in pairs.
@@clintonlied you in the area of the newberry-rexton motorcycle trail and/or the sandtown motorcycle trail? I live nearby and have a drz 400s and would like to try these trails out but don't want to go alone and don't have any other people that ride dirt bikes.
How many people were up there this year?
Right around a hundred at the begining of the week.
@@midwestendurotrail2934 Wow, it sure has grown. I haven't rode a CCC event since the Phil Bean Memorial ride in 2008 when things were getting weird with the CCC. And then I just got busy with college and life.
@@clintonlied by the end of the week there was about half that many people. This was the first time I had done it, 2nd time for my dad...I remember being younger and always wanting to do 6 days. Me, my dad and at least one of the other riders in our group will be there again next year. It was such a blast.
