True that. I hope to get out next week a little and then hopefully for a ride next weekend.

BIL and I will be going up AF about 6:30.. Any one is welcome. Only be for a couple hours.


For for a future ride.. Is it possible to go from AF to hobble/diamond fork on single track?? That would be fun.

I don't think you could, you've got Provo Canyon in the way. You could ride a decent amount of the way down AFC towards Aspen Grove, then hop on to the highway for a short distance, run to Squaw Peak and then I think that can take you all the way in to Hobble Creek and then I know you can go from Hobble Creek to Diamond Fork. I don't think it's really single track most of the way, but it would largely be offroad.

Another fun one that you could make in to an over-nighter would be AFC to Midway, jump on the highway and run up to Strawberry, then you go get offroad from there and come out in Hobble Creek, Diamond Fork, or Spanish Fork Canyon. You could spend the night in the White River area. If you really wanted to make it a long trip, come out in Spanish Fork Canyon, then you're only a couple hundred yards from jumping on the Skyline Trail and that can be an adventure in and of itself.

We had a good ride today. Went up 40 to 157, over to 38 and down. What a joke that trail is! I went up it once about 3 years ago, but can't believe it now. I would bet it is the most difficult trail in AF. if you would like a serious work out, ride 38

As sad as it is I'm going to go hit the single track by my house tomorrow for the first time this year.

The Stansburry trails? I remember those and loved them! What time are you planning on riding? I would love to come but I should verify my jets in my bike this time before I go balls out.

I just don't what to blow up like last time lol. I would dope the jest are stock so the bike should be running a little rich but I want to cheek it out first.

I think I will pass on this ride but I will be golden for the next weekend if anyone is free. I know it's the 4th weekend but never know.

We started in Brigham and rode up willard peak on some gnarly single track with so many switchbacks I lost count. Then down to mantua and down the road back. Pretty awesome. Hit 8700 ft

Rough terrain? Average moving speed 8.7 mph

Looks like a sweet ride though. I know the skyline trial sounds like a cool run.

So narrow and switchbacked we barely got out of first gear.

We are planning the next trail ride from north Ogden pass to Ben Lomond peak then down to pineview

 

[jentzschman]

Dang, sound tight but also very fun. Did you have to work much on the switchbacks or were they simply straight forward, run of the mill switchbacks?

I ended up going solo so I spent a fair amount of time searching for new 2 track I can take the utv on. Found tons of dead ends and some fun stuff. I made it far enough south that I went up Hickman and rode the single track home. It was actually nice to ride solo and I found myself stopping to enjoy the views much more than normal.

Got my bike decorked, jetted with the JD kit, and installed radiator guards, looking forward to some riding this weekend. What a PITA it was to get the intake boot back on the carb. I removed the carb because I wanted to get familiar with working on the bike.
