Time to the Wudi11 Ride is getting shorter. (WooooHooooo!!!!)
In addition to the Wudi11 web page http://members.cox.net/jejb/Wudi11/wudi11.html , John Brunsgaard has put up a dedicated Wudi forum for us here: http://z13.invisionfree.com/WUDI (It's a free forum, so please forgive the advertisements.) The weather up north has been "special" so far this winter. We've had a few cold spells (for us), but the afternoons here for the last week have been fluctuating from the high 40's to the low 70's (F). The riding in Arkansas, so far this year, has been great! See ya'll in a few weeks. Jim

It was 75F here yesterday, and it's supposed to be the same today.
We have been riding almost every weekend this year, so far. It looks great for the Wudi Ride. Also, I paid extra for good weather for the last weekend of the month. I'm getting really excited, as the time grows near. One more thing, one "gnarly dude" has organized a 140 mile dual sport ride for those attending the Wudi. It will be a trail oriented dual sport ride, so don't bring any BMW GS dual sport bikes and expect to have it easy. Some details are in the Wudi Forum. Good Riding! Jim

Latest Update/Wudi11
Jeb sent this to the Wudi11 mailing list Sunday night. I thought I would share it with you all. I pasted it just below this opening message.
(notice that Jeb is jonesing for some HoneyWeis beer.) It looks like they have been working overtime to get the ice storm damage out of our way. Thanks jeb and the Razorback Riders! (our hosts) My group is packed and ready, except for Deb still getting Saturday night's chicken gumbo ready. I just need to finish loading the pick-ups with all our vehicles and gear. We leave tomorrow for White Rock Mountain (Combs, AR). I hope to see all ya'll there. Jim Cook *********************************************** Wudi update 2/22/09 Sunday, February 22, 2009 8:10 PM From: "jejb@xxxxxxxx.xxx Hey all, Man, I'm embarrassed. I'm pretty sore and tired, and it's just from working trail! I guess 5 weekends in a row of chainsaw work is pushing it a little? Or maybe I'm just getting old? But the Honey Weiss and Tanquery/tonic are helping. Speaking of which, anyone wanting to haul me down a 12 pack or case of Honey Weiss would be repaid in gratitude and greenbacks. The trails are looking pretty good. Our 3 man crew alone went through 5 tanks of chainsaw gas again today. There is still more to do, but there will be for quite a while because of that ice storm. Most of the trails I intend to use are now ready to go. Thursday's riding, for whomever shows up early, may be a mix of fun riding and a little arrowing/working. We did not get a chance to cut out that big snag on the very south end of the main "Blue" loop, but there's a shortcut to get around that I need to arrow in. Lots of the fun single track is ready to go, along with the 6 miles of brand new trails. So should be fun for everyone. Weather forecast has small chance of rain Thursday only at this point. The forecast had more rain it, but it keeps better everytime I look at it. A little rain would not hurt at all. Some of the more open ATV trails were putting up a little dust today, and the truck was putting up some dust coming into camp. Conditions are pretty premo, really, but a little rain would be just fine, too. Highs are suppose to be around 50, which is great riding weather. Bring a little wood if you think of it. There's TONS of it laying around on the trails right now, but I ain't dragging that back to camp. So if everyone brings a little, we should have a nice fire or two every night. The club house has a nice double barrel wood burner, so maybe we'll all just hang in there. The sites closest to Mill Creek are still not graveled, so those will be great for the tent folks wanting electric hookups. If you have any questions at all, email me or post them to the forum. Again, I'll be there there about 5pm on Wednesday, so come say hi. John - jeb http://members.cox.net/jejb/Wudi11/wudi11.html http://z13.invisionfree.com/WUDI/index.php?

Sounds like a great chance to ride! The Welland canal is still 12" thick frozen here, and my Ice tires are almost done.
Is thie ride the same weekend every year? I pass up the trip to indy and Daytona and head to AK for 2010. Give lots of notice - it's a 20 hr drive. Jim Cook, We still need to meet up and talk...Some day! Jim Jervis Welland, Ontario, Canada |

I regretted not getting to speak to you longer at the ISDT Reunion Ride. White Rock Mtn is only a couple of hours east of Tulsa. It would have been my pleasure. Next time, for sure. We do it within a week, one way or the other, each year. This weekend seems to work out best, regarding local races and the regional enduro schedule. Look for the exact date to be set for next year's ride sometimes around Thanksgiving. Then, we will announce it here and on some of the other forums. Come on down! (to AR, not AK. It's cold in AK. ) Jim

Jim,
Thanks for another great Wudi ride & Deb's Gumbo was great also! My 11 yr old son and his 12 yr old riding buddy had agreat time on their 85's. They made it up most of the BIG rocky hills and only needed a little help. They will be ready to ride once the racing season starts up here in the Tundra. They thought it was cool riding in the snow, at least the ground wasn't frozen like in MN. Here told me he wants to come back again next year! Thanks again! Bob in MN Tell Brandon Thanks for showing us around! |

Thank you and your son for traveling down and joining us, Bob.
The weather turned cold on us, Saturday, but I sure had a great time. Good Riding! Jim

Wudi ride 2010
If the Wudi ride doesn't collide with the Indy Dealer show or some other major event, we'd like to try and bring some 2010's down for a demo ride. What is the projected dates?
