Kokadjo Roach Riders

07/26/2026

Good morning Sled Heads, here’s an update on what’s been happening behind the scenes with the Roach Riders. Trail master Tom Pote and Paul Napolitano have been overseeing our trails project. BPond Trail has been cleaned up rocks removed or is hook calls them land sharks. We can now groom through there without killing the drag. Jerry Donohoe has been doing a fantastic job! Tom Gilbert has been going through all the groomers and doing all the maintenance. Jeff, Richie, Dickie, Jack, Barry and Tommy P built eight kiosks. Paul has been going out on the trails and putting posts in for signs. Paul and Jeff Gagnon went out and broke up Beaverdam‘s. And the big news is the Roach Riders have taken on the Route 66 Trail. We now have the man and machine power. There are 11 bridges that need to be signed with backer boards. We still have a lot of work to do, but should be in great shape when the snow comes! Thanks to all for your hard work & dedication ☃️

Welcome to the end of another season. It was cold but not the snow depth that we could've used. I hope a good amount of you sledders got to enjoy our trails. We put our hearts & souls into making them the best we could: starting with fall trail work to end of season reroutes. Special thanks to all club members that made this possible. Thanks to all of our supporting businesses & all of the members that signed up this year! Special thanks to our groomer operators: Paul, Tom, Derek, and Justin for all of the hours they put in. Special thanks to Tom Gilbert for the tons of work he put into the trails & paperwork. As Trail Master Tom maintained the trails and all the groomers & addressed the repairs. The paperwork he pushed for grants & 501c3 was very time consuming. None of this would not have gotten done without his dedication! A big thank you to Paul Napolitano for helping us all season with anything that needed to be addressed, going out on his own & signing, talking with people from the State, surrounding clubs & Land owners (He knows people). Paul stepped down as President this summer, but stepped up big time! Paul has not let off the throttle! We would also like to thank the land owners for sharing with us as this sport wouldn't be possible without them. Have a great summer, my head is already thinking about next season!

Jack Idman
President

Trail report 3/6/2026

Going into the weekend, trails are holding up for the most part. Some areas are down to little snow and dirt, in the Kokadjo area. Once you are a couple miles out of Kokadjo, conditions improve.
Due to conditions and weather, we have suspended grooming. Weather dependent, if we get any substantial snow, we’ll get groomers back out on nights that’s it’s cold enough to groom.

Any questions on the store hours, fuel & parking please call the store

Ride safe, ride right.

Captain Hooks Trail Report 3-2-26 All hands on deck! The captain has an announcement! We have reached an agreement with N.E.C. to take the 8 mile section of rt 66 from 4 corners to the intersection of nfg. This will be added to our mileage for next season and our portion will be groomed 5 nights a week! Today I groomed Benny's bridge and #4 mountain the section of 86 from the Greenville rd to the Smithtown rd has a lot of dirt showing but is still rideable most of our trails are still in good shape but after today we will be limiting grooming until after this warm weekend or until we get more snow. Thanks---Hook
