did you do the twisty fence trail? It has little berms and twisties through it. Fun trail.
The upcoming moto ride/quick report.

Not sure but I don't think so. The stuff we rode wasn't super established. I was definitely a trail, but you could tell it wasn't ridden enough to have any kind of a name. We also went through many gates, but never really followed any fences more than a few hundred yards tops. My buddy that I rode with is super familiar with the area we rode, but he had only raced through the trails we were riding, never just trail rode them.

There is a desert race out there this weekend, so be sure to stay away from any trails with pink ribbon.
Yep, well aware of the race. This weekend I'm mostly wanting to go scout the area off the main roads to find a place to camp (somewhere I can get my camper in to).
Can't Friday, but yeah, we need to get out on another ride.

Caleb when are you going this weekend? I'd like to come but only if you don't mind. What time and for how long and how far of a drive is it there?
Haven't really set a time. Probably a little earlier. If I go to the same area, it's about 1-1.5 hours away...maybe less I didn't really pay attention to time. It's out a short ways past Eureka. Absolutely you're welcome to come, however I will probably be doing mostly dirt road riding this weekend and not as much single track. I may hit a little ST though. I could probably be convinced to run the same track as we ran last week
(especially if my new rear spring gets here)

you guys need to find the fence line trail, it's a blast.

Yep, that was. Up to the radio towers, down the backside, looks like he ran some of that single track, then maybe out the the main road that connects to Eagle Mountain.
Yup, exactly right. My GoPro batttery died but after Nutty Putty I went due east thinking I could hit the main road but was interrupted by a few farmers locked gates so I went through little moab and then home. A little over 100 miles. fun!

Early is fine with me. The earlier we'd leave the better. I'm fine riding anything since I don't have any seat time on my bike yet. Any idea of how long you'll be out?

Anyone want to ride tomorrow (Thursday) night? I'm thinking the singletrack out on the other side of the lake, or Israel Canyon, or snakes, or...?

My brother and I are looking for a fun place to ride tonight for a couple hours. Anyone wanna join me? I'm thinking of riding Caleb's singletrack on the west side of the lake. I'm going to name that Anarchy trail. Any other areas worth exploring near Lehi? AF Canyon is still closed, and I need to learn of some more good singletrack here in Utah. Any suggestions?

I wish I would have planned something earlier. This weekend would be a great excuse for a night ride--Super Moon and all

That sucks! I was planning on riding with you Saturday. You should put your old one on so we can still go.
I would but I already sold it. I expected my new spring for last weekend, there was no question about having it for this weekend. I do have another lighter than stock spring so I tried it tonight and it basically put the tire in to the fender when my fat arse sat on it. Fingers crossed it shows up tomorrow.

Mine are crossed too. I've got all my wires figured out and most everything is figured out. Blinkers work, headlight works, e start works, horn would work but I left it unwired cause the button is getting stuck. I can't get the bright to work though. Oh well.

man, that sucks Caleb.
My brother and I rode out west of the lake looking for anarchy trail. We missed one of the turns, and ended up exploring all the way up to the radio towers. Round trip was about 30 miles. I was afraid my little kx100 was going to run out of gas (1.5 gal tank), but we made it back to the truck with gas to spare. It was a beautiful night with a full moon and lots of jackrabbits to chase. I really like my little kx. Plenty of power, I just need to do something about the wheelbase.
