Butcher,
I was thinking they might allow us to have a "club meeting" out there some day (before they put their livestock in for the summer. They might be tough to get a hold of this time of year since they farm over 3000 acres. Another local club did the same thing last year. They do have a decent track out there and some sizeable hills (larger than Tri-County and Bauer's Pit).
Overall size doesn't cover as much area as Bauer's but is a little more than twice the size of Tri-County.

not to rain on your parade Scooby, but many of the trails have speed limits of 35 mph or less. The MN DNR has been using the "Eye in the Sky" recently to patrol known trails, both legal and illegal.I have some relatives about an hour south of MPLS that have a gravel pit that could provide some hill climbing entertainment, but not too sure they would be willing to let more people ride there. I could check if you're interested.

Boo,
since the road between Blakely and Henderson washed out, it's been closed and posted. The majority of the land between BP and Henderson is private and I've heard too many complaints from people of the damage. Also, the "bottom road" between Blakely and Henderson is a county road until you get almost to HWY 19, then it turns to township for about a half mile.
Keep in mind that if you venture closer to the river and ride the sand bars, that is within the ordinary high water mark and illegal. Unless you'r'e riding the ditches during the legal time frame, there is no traversable route between BP and Henderson (Hooterville).

Ive noticed that, they get pretty rough down there, my stock tires could not go through some places because people has torn it up so bad, and thats what is giving us good guys a bad name. If people would take that TREAD LIGHTLY seriously , we wouldnt have all of these complaints. But it is getting bad, I didnt know you couldnt ride on the sand bars next to the river because of the high water mark. Thanks for the information, I will pass it on
