Awesome video and awesome skills! I was there May 2008. It rained a week before we arrived and the week we were to ride. After 2 days of trying to ride we gave up and came home. Imagine those trails soaking wet. There's no traction at all. After seeing your video, the next time I go I think I'll bring both the KLX250S and my kids KLX140L for the single track hill climbs.

Glad you liked it and provided some entertainment for your 2 y/o. Glad we weren't cussing too badly, you'd have to cover his ears. lol I guess I could bleep out if it got too bad.

Thanks, we actually did get some rain at the end of Day 2, it didn't really affect our ride except we cut one trail a little short, it was looking pretty dark and cloudy. Once the rain started falling, you're right, it got real slick real fast. The closest I came to going down was on that hard slick stuff at the end of the ride on Saturday, nearly lost it in a turn. In reviewing the helmet cam, looks like I blipped the throttle coming out of the turn and it broke the rear end loose and it nearly met the front. Somehow I managed to save it, but just barely.

Sheesh, thats some bad azz trail system. Those rocks really give you a work out. What a great place to ride. Although calling some of those cowpaths a trail is a real stretch, huh?
Is the trail system one way?
