Back to the Shack [MN]

Back to the Shack
It's the annual ride up to the serene land on Horseshoe Lake near Pine River, MN. Explore the roads that wind around the lakes and Jack pines of the north, returning to the shack for some R&R, grillin' and chillin' and b.s.in' around the bonfire. Take in the complimentary north woods ambiance of fresh air, loons, beavers, eagles, bullfrogs and other wildlife.

Whatever motorcycle you ride, dual sport, adventure tourer or road bike, there are plenty of trails and roads to explore. The Shack is near the central part of the TMAT route (Trans Minnesota Adventure Tour) and there are plenty of state land with trails and old logging roads for the adventurist.

More details will be posted as they develop.

Camping and Lodging
Bring your camping gear and find a spot near the shack.  If you're not into camping, lodging can be found in the town of Pine River, MN. 

Food
On the day ride back to the shack, we will stop and pick up grilling and deli supplies and a little something for breakfast. 

Registration & Fees 
Registration will be done online through the COG website.  There are no registration fees, but we're asking everyone to register online so we have a headcount.  Once registered, contact Randy Schafer at rides1zg@aol.com for directions to the shack.   
Online registration will close at 11:59 pm CDT on Thursday, August 08, 2024.

Cancellation Policy  
If you must cancel after registration closes (August 08), please send an email to Randy Schafer at rides1zg@aol.com so we know a bear didn't get you (most of us would prefer not having to search through bear droppings if we don't need to).
