2nd Annual Winter Riding Trip

[Gravy]

Me, Jon and Luke are headed down early Thursday to get some riding in if anyone wants to meet up for an early ride.


I like sand hollow. It's just kinda sandy... I've got some flags. It's pretty fun up in there.

But I'd say we do a day in Warner Valley doing the Rhino Rally stuff and maybe a little ride in Santa Clara up in the hills, It's pretty rad up there.

I'll find a link for you guys on google maps.

edit: here is the Santa Clara spot:

37.128442,-113.662362

me and Tyson and Grant rode here and me last year
and Kevin found some sweet terrain in November.

Here's the Warner Valley spot.

37.046592,-113.456361

This is the Sage Riders Thanksgiving camp area. We can do that gnarly elevator drop that Skyler posted on FB if we get the guts.

There's a whole lot more riding in Warner valley than just the rhino loop. I look for new trails every time I head out. I know a few loops that are 30-50 miles. We're heading down Thursday around 6 pm. Maybe earlier. And we have room in the trailer and truck. Leaving from orem.

What time does that put you guys there? If I can leave work early, I'll leave Thursday about 2-3 PM... it's a 6 hr drive for me, putting me there around 9 PM. At least we/I could get in a full day of riding on Friday, rather than a half day.

I'm off Thursday, so I'm good with whatever time you can go. I can have your bike and gear loaded up before you get home if someone is at the house. Let me know...

 

[Cascadia]

If we leave at 6 we'll be there at 9:20. Unless I drive like I did today. I'd get there at 8:57. That's a record for me. 265 miles in2:57 minutes.

I have room Chad. Text me for details.

Looks like I'm riding with Russ. Thanks for the offer Brian.
I can't wait. Having a new bike in the garage for a month without riding it is torture.

I left all my stuff, including my bike in st George so I wouldn't have to worry about it. I had no reason to bring it home either.

Cool. You bringing your bike back after this weekend?

 

[Cascadia]

Probably. I know I'll be back down south on the 6th but probably not the weekend before. That way I can prep for the first race.

The Rhino stuff I mentioned before was from 2013, 75 miles and not an inch of it was part of the 2014 coarse, and in my opinion is better stuff.

 

[Cascadia]

Cool. I'd like to ride some of it. Wonder if I already have.

[GAR]

He's got whats called a "dry break" sytem and the fuel comes from a "dump can" (jug). I had one on my 450 and I ordered my 3 gal. IMS tank with the spring loaded receiver part already in it. It would dump that 3 gallons in about 5 seconds. They're badass if seconds count.

 

[rholbrook]

Just paid my sales tax and registration for my 300. I'm ready to go. We are leaving Thursday at 4 when Cheston gets to my house then off to pick up Chad in PG

 

[jeeper]

Where will we meet friday/saturday mornings?
