I went doe to Custer today and reserved a cabin.  So how does this work? Are we supposed to sign up for the rides? Or everyone on their own?  I have never met anyone from the group and this is my first time meeting everyone.

DakotaDrifter; very good questions. Great Buffalo is the best to answer. I think people maybe meet and greet the night before or the morning of and decide which trail leader they want to follow. Brad and Dan usually volunteer as trail leaders, while Mike leads single track. My thoughts are more fun in a group than on your own. Besides I don't know the BH like they do. I had never gotten to follow Dan before so last spring I asked if he could save a spot for me.

Yes I'm definitely hoping to ride in a group and follow others. I do not know the trails in that area.  Thanks for the response.  I'm looking forward to meeting everyone.

How does this work .......

Won't lie, it is a loose affair.  Sign ups have been tried with this group but limited success.

The group is varied and has different interests so some just want an easy trail ride, others want to ride with the focus of seeing historic or scenic places- (caves maybe), others may want to flog their bikes across trails that pose a challenge.

A couple of the long-term members will have some ideas where they want to ride.  Show up early or hang by the camp fire and see who has your riding style or best reflects your riding interest.  They'll get you hooked up

That sounds great!!!! I like the laid back atmosphere!  I will be coming in Thursday and look forward to the new friends and conversation!   Glad I found this group!

Wacked, I don't know if Unswitched (Gary) is going to make it I haven't heard from him since mid August and I'm not even sure what state he's living in now. So it probably opens up a spot on your Saturday ride.

Hi, I should make it up there, and I'm interested in Wack's ride and also rides that Great Buffalo might be leading.
Thanks!

I don't know but I'm guessing the June event draws a bigger group.

As of today, I'll be attending the rally. I was on the list to go in June and it just did not work out. Hopefully there is a cabin available still, if not I have a tent cot. Looking forward to some riding in the Hills!

I was down at the campground last week to get a cabin and she had a few left.  Great to hear you're coming. I'm looking forward to meeting everyone.

Sorry I have been MIA but between work and the BDR last week I have been otherwise engaged. I am planning on leading rides on Friday and Saturday. Will be big bike friendly, laid back, and scenic. I can take a bit larger groups but would rather cap it at 10 riders
