Went out trail riding for the 1st time in 20 years. Langhamm took us to his secret location. What a fun ride but not really set up with the MX bike. It was a great way to spend the day with my youngest son on his 22nd birthday. Some rocky creek sections were gnarly but fun and the canyon downhill took us awhile to figure a way down. Great single track, ridge and switchback riding. Thanks Lang we really enjoyed the ride
Glad you had fun!

90% of the shrubbery has a needle just waiting to stab you if you make a mistake either that or BOULDERS, sometimes both take your pick!
On my 500 2t ( yes, many will regard it as somewhat inappropriate for extreme / tight terrain, but, it's a Big, Cuddly Teddy Bear with endless torque for the seriously tight / nasty stuff) , I think I rarely get over a 1/4 throttle, through most of my local rides.
The Young (40yr old) bloke across the road from me has just got a late model KTHusky 450 Enduro. He's asked me to take him on my local rides, but, I'm a bit 'iffy' about it at the moment. He works for himself, has 2 little tackers - 1 brand new - and I don't want to be part of him getting hurt, especially in these strained times. He claims to only ever being an 'average' rider - well, that's better than him thinking he's a Pro. Much of the stuff I've ridden here for decades , is starting to scare the crap out of me ( I've started to look over the side of the cliffs I'm inches away from
Please come back soon, it’s a great way to social distance from the rest of the world !
You missed the last loop, it was a little gnarly. Especially on a MX bike. This is a pic that Kelsey took when we were able to actually stop. Pic dies no justice and the previous 300’ of this canyon was almost vertical. No time for taking pics, until we came to this point. But I’d be glad to show it to you next time ! Lol
Anyone recognize the guy with his helmet off ? He did really well on his MX bike, good times today.
I can't even expalin what an epic time I've had riding with all of you, today. My 450 was a bit of a handful in the really tight stuff...but, overall...I was blown away at how well it preformed in all the single track, technical sections like waterfall "climbing and traversing"(there were a few of those) of-course Kevin's Trail Thru Hell (pictured with me taking a break and sweating my ass off)...yup, my SXF did it all pretty damn well.
That picture doesn't expalin the insane 'Vertical Challenge' that the canyon truly was. It KICKED my ass.
I look forward to my next ride with y'all when I'm gonna wisen up and bring my Husky 350.
Thanks, again!
P.S - all that bling on your 300 and no radiator guards or braces?!? lol
I snapped off the bolts in the frame that hold them on. It was a boulder fest coming down the vertical descent.
I got these pics sent to me this morning by a friend that went searching for our trail we broke in yesterday. These guys are in their late 60’s and still as gnarly as it gets !
We'll need parking for 2 vans!
Pit Row
The fact that our 60+\ almost 70 year old friends went searching for it this morning gives me hope of many years to come. Lol
Buying this property is one of my best purchases ever !
Some own 2-1/2 acres, some own 200+ acres. It’s pretty damn awesome !
Fyi, the Joshua is no longer open for parking for those who know...
"Burn in" parties are the best!
