today was awesome

Man what a day. Rode my a@@ off. Learned a few things too. Took a couple of pictures.

Where too start? Pictures? What I learned? I'm so confused and tired. Only have an hour till bed also. I"ll tell you what, if I actually had someone teaching me the things I should already know, I'd be having even more of a blast!

Lets start with pics, then by tomorrow i will have forgotten everything i learned, lol

This is where I'm going.




Odds and ends...pictures are out of order once again so I'll just throw them up as i can.





O' whats this? How to get across? j/k i actually went around, more on that later.




Last year I came to this intersection and never went right, this time i did.








Someone on another forum said you don't need a skid plate. Bwahaha. I had stuff bouncing as well as I was bouncing off of stuff.




Ok i'm tired and got a few more things to do. I'll try to finish tomorrow night.

dang looks like it was fun.. I had today off too

Not sure. I hit snow. Tried to make it through but couldn't. The way we went you couldn't go very far, I ended up going up the other road.

Yes I did hit snow on a few roads.


In this pic you can see my trail. I tried to get through because it was only a little protected bend in the road where the snow hadn't melted. Could see the other side and there was more riding to do. Rode in as far as I could then started walking the bike. Noticed I had about 1/2mile to go so turned around. Bought gave myself a heart attack going back.




Bombing down a road getting slapped around from branches.


It's not like I go looking for this crap, just kind of walk through it.


See that rock outcrop. The pointy one?


Yeah, that one.


For some stupid reason I climbed up there. Took a few pics that do nothing for the height.




As you can see there is a lot more riding to do, but snow is in the way.


You are problably wondering what was on top of the rock? I swear I don't go lookin for this stuff. I'm guessing eagle or hawk?

Almost done with the ride and camera batteries are almost dead.

Coming back down had to stop and take a picture of the rocks. Don't really know how I made it up this so quickly.




Remember when I said wasn't sure how to get across, but i really went around? Here's a few pics of that. Too many pictures, but they are for another project.








Think these where looking up from there.




That's all the pictures from that. Almost at the bottom and didn't want it to end. Went to the other side and hit all the roads as fast as I could. I'm guessing I rode for another hour? I actually had to stop and get gas before heading home. Put on 40some miles in the hills.

Good shots! Even the crap was framed with such a artistic eye.

Looks like you had a good time!

that rock with the thingy on it looks like it was giving you the finger ! i am going to start calling you inspector POO !

great pics.

That looks fun, the last snow I was in was on our ride on the 16th when we almost made it to Sugarloaf lookout.
