Thanks for making our Fall Ride such a success!
Rapids Riders ATV Club sponsored a Fall Ride along the B&B Connector Last Fall. We Started from The Balsam store with a stop at Antler Lodge and then travelled to Bigfork for a meal. Everyone enjoyed The spectacular fall Colors along the way.
It turned out to be a safe and enjoyable ride for everyone and mother nature blessed us with some excellent weather for the trip. Over 25 machines and nearly 40 riders attended.
Thanks to everyone that attended and made it safe and fun!

Keeping Itasca County Clean
(At least our little part of it)
Another successful event for the Rapids Riders ATV Club. the weather wasn't too promising for a clean up crew to venture out...rain and wind! However, by early afternoon the sun came out, and it warmed up nicely. The wind was still a factor, but if you help your bag just right, it helped keep it open and ready for trash!
Here are a few pics of the 5:30 original crew, but more showed up as we got to work. In less than an hour, both sides of the road in the 2 miles stretch assigned to us were picked up and we left a nice pile of bags at the Driftskipper's intersection for DOT to pick up.
Thanks to everyone who helped out, and especially to Cathy McLynn for getting us the safety vests and trash bags.
