For the question on another thread: The Edson Rally is family oriented. A lot less mud then Robb.

This will be my first ever rally i have ever attended, I've heard its perfect especially for newer riders to "get their feet wet" so to speak.
Fairly tame trails with little bit of mud and a couple tricky spots. Sum it up pretty good?

Yes it is excellent for new riders. This rally is the best organized in the area and has fantastic prizes that can be won. That reminds me, better print that GPS manual for you for the quad.

heh and from what i can remember the holes you do run into are going to be skeg holes and it really doesn't matter what you have.. go around them hahah.. i tore a CV boot off last year "could have been the year before i cant remember haha"

but then a won a bunch of stuff at the raffle so it didn't seem as bad :P

Alberta Redneck · 06-29-2009, 07:05 PM

Someone in Edson told me today that you organizers added an extra 50km to the ride. Is this true or just rumours? Gerry could you confirm this for me.

Thanks

Bahaha. Trail will be around 50km total. We choose the trail the day before the rally, just so there are no rumors.

Lenard pretty much summed it up. For the most part the trail is on good ground. We run through a few skeg holes to satsify those who want a challange.

dirtygirl · 06-30-2009, 02:04 AM

Once again we can't make it! We have the first of two family reunions this summer on that day! Both reunions are my husband's family. Not impressed! Missed the Robb rally because he was in Chetwhyn BC, with the keys. Missed the first ride with you guys because his family showed up and didn't have quads. I'm really feeling doomed.

Fumed!

and Gloomed!

We still haven't found a route to the "gas pipeline" that isn't blocked or skeg or you need an Argo to get through. My GPS has shown us soooo close many time but we keep hitting these obstacles! Even when the area was at it's dryest we found skeg we couldn't cross.

Garry, if you have any time over the summer can you please PM me so we can hook up and find these trails? We are happy to pay membership in the Edson ATV club or anything needed to support the trails if we can just ride them!

Thanks!

hi my dad and a bunch of his friends are heading to edson for the rally. and was just wondering if mx bikes are allowed? that may seem like a silly question but it helps knowing in advance

Ridin High · 06-30-2009, 07:38 PM

Ya the last few years i was there, people had attended the ride on a dirt bike. Can't see it being an issue.

cr450f · 06-30-2009, 10:22 PM

what if there is no spark arrestor cause its a racebike? also is there any fire bans in effect?

rubirose · 07-01-2009, 04:12 PM

Race bikes are not allowed on Crown land. You must have head/tailights, plates and insurance and spark arrestors. We don't want people without to start fires while riding. Thank you
