      Go to the south side of Pond Rd, off of Army Rd. to get to the race site.

      The first year I went to Michigan, my GPS took me to the north side of Pond Rd, which basically consisted of a dried up creek bed going up a steep hill and required me getting out of my SUV twice to move trees (not branches) that had fallen down. Also, the neighborhood at that end had an eerie similarity to various parts of the movie "Deliverance" ....I could almost hear the banjos.

      Not sure if its any better now, its been 4 years since then.


      Michigan Club Dudes.....any construction happening around there this year? Seems everytime theres some detour taking us somewhere ...
      I was just making maps and Google directs you to the north end. I'll keep going south on Rochester rd and turn right on Army rd to come from the south.

                  We're likely going 4 rounds but we'll also likely let you scale guys decide amongst yourselves what you want to do.

                  You know how I feel about the scales. Kinda sacred. I mean we are Mid Michigan Electric "Unlimiteds"

                    Wait, you're house can't be more than 8 minutes from the pond. Have them come by for your last heat of the day.

                    If you get in trouble time wise you can always just drop your gear and roll. I'll take care of your stuff for you.

                      4 rounds a day for SCALE? I'll probably just scratch.

                        Just to make this clear we are set for 3 rounds per day. We will see how it goes and if there is enough time to be off the pond in time we may do 4 but that will be a call made by the racers in the day of the race
                        When all else fails floor it

                            I wished you had shared this before I left my apt in Milton. I would have much rather ran it than shoehorn in a Castle 1515...

                                That was the boat that got speared. The replacement has a bit bigger TP in it now. We'll see.
