Saturday afternoon the little Super Sherpa did its first single track (and my first).  I was a little too busy tending to my own survival to actually witness the successful negotiating of Pilot Knob (I think) single track by two Katoom 950s, but I know they did it because I saw them at the start and the finish.  Holy guacamole, Batman!  It's truly humbling.

You did awesome. I had no idea those little Sherpa's are that capable and any one that can ride that single track trail keeping up with the group we had can ride about any trail out here.

I wanted to extend a thanks to the group for not leaving me hanging with a flat, also a thanks for the hand in repairing it on the trail.

Thanks gents!

What a blast!
Thanks everyone for sharing their trail knowledge, food, and hospitality.
I'm glad that I got some trail time after just passing through last year.  I'll be holding the time in my calender for next summer's rally.  Sadly, this fall is not looking too good for me.
I hope to reciprocate by posting a few good trail events here in MN for all who are interested.

Great meeting everyone!  I agree, with "FriDge fan"  :D, a lot of great riders showed up this year!  Thanks everyone for putting for the effort to come our little rally!  If Alan keeps putting this all together, we might have something special amongst dual sport gatherings!  Thanks Alan!

Jeez, with a little concerted effort I'd almost forgotten about the little mud nap  :-\.  Thanks for reminding me. :D

Thanks for posting the pix.  I copied them to my rally picture folder.
