The upcoming moto ride/quick report.

Rode AF today with my 10 year old on his 65. We rode 40 to 157 to 41 back to tibble. 11 miles and he never crashed. Loaded up just in time for the rain to start. Better ride days than today don't exist!!
 
Just finished a 500+ mile loop from my house to a friends house in Big Piney WY. Stayed the night and headed back today. 95% dirt... ATK ran spectacular however some wiring gremlins blew my headlight out and the e-start no longer works--doh. I'm happy by back held out it was a very fun ride :cool:

And when do we see a trip report? :cool:
 
ProSkier and I took a ride on Friday afternoon. Rode up Old Ward Canyon, turnoff to Buckland ridge and then down to Tuttle loop and up the backside.









































He wrecked pretty hard on the dirt road coming back down Skyline drive; took a corner too fast and blew it into the ditch. Pads saved his butt. Bike got bent bars and that's about it. He got a finger tip chop and some decent road rash on his forearms, legs and hip.

I do quite like the flywheel weight and lightness of his WR250f but it needs the valves adjusted and a new kick starter... it's a pain in the butt to start when it's hot.

Had a good ride yesterday up Hobble Creek. Rode from the bottom up over to Mapleton and then back.

The leaves are definitely starting to change. Lots of color up there. We ran in to one very large tree that had fallen across the trail, we were all very tired by that point but managed to get it off the trail.

That looks like some awesome riding Caleb!

Welcome to the Badlands. Thats a fun spot to ride. I like the make up of the dirt. They used to have a hill climb out there but I dont know if they still have it anymore.
 
The Badllands are amazing! I'm glad you were able to try it out.

Until I hurt my back we we'd go every Memorial and Labor day weekend. Nothing like holding a 500cc 2T wide open up these climbs! :chris:
