I just moved to the SW Michgan area and I'm interested in trying out this trail. This was posted a few years ago, is this information still accurate? Also, which is the best direction to ride the trail? To me, it looks like I should start the green trail at Trailhead, get onto the blue trail by Canadian turnpike, then start red at Advanced Trail, and then finish up at Logjam.

The link for more information is posted above incorrectly it should read http://www.nimba-bike.org/ (which is the northern indiana mountain bikers assoc).

Rummy has got a TT race this sunday. This trail is tight twisty hilly!!! I pre-rode the trail last sunday and I'm heading up to do the TT thats how good the trail is! Let's go up north and join our northern brothers and sisters and show them our support! By the way this series uses ankle bracelets that have a chip in them. Something to think about DINO ;)
