Yes I’m a bit behind in my picture stories, been doing a lot of riding while the weather is still good before all HELL breaks loose.

Anyway the day before Easter it rained out here in Sunny AZ and that always gets my blood pumping. So I called about 10 of my riding comrades and two made it as I guess the others were busy chasing the Easter Bunny.

Turned out the Moto Gods were upon us and traction was great. That's Four Peaks in the horizon covered by clouds.





Marko with Sugarloaf Mountain as a backdrop.


The Ocotillo and other cacti was in full bloom.



Greg gassing it up the hill coming out of the wash.



This is right after a nasty boulder infested downhill and things get technical from here on out…





Taking a break. That’s Motomad, Greg and a couple of guys we met on the trail. One of them snapped a chain deep into the trail. I gave him a master link that was non-o-ring but he had an o-ring chain. He managed to McGuiver it by grinding his chain down on a rock!



Top of Four Peaks



Almost back to camp so I decided to stop for some last photos before the bench racing and beer consuming commenced.
Self Portrait--There is nothing better to me than riding in the Dez after a rain., and yes that's my Trail Thrasher helmet.... lol




That's all for now, hope you enjoyed the pics.

Thanks guys. I'm really fortunate to be so close to this epic riding spot and do not take it for granted--hence the many photos.

I tell the boys all the time, "do you know how lucky we are to ride this stuff? Some guys travel hours to ride....."

Cool the snow has thawed? Our summers are you're winters.

I've been hitting the tracks every w/e as well. Racing my first night race at ACP in awhile. Not a real fan of racing at night as I can barely see straight in the day.... lol

Havta stay in Moto-Mode as I will be racing Am day at the Glen Helen National! Woohoo







Damn the Cooperland ride sounds great wish I could go but it's a bit too far....
