Funny...when I was younger (uh much younger) I rode the sand hills by the railroad tracks near my house. I have gone down there a few times and looked up and thought "no way".

Marty Im am 43 years old, 5'06 and weigh 175 pounds. I have tried to ride the klx like that but the supension is too soft and I kept bottoming them out , and being a rookie did not double up. After 3 months riding I feel more confident and would like to go back.

Sully they changed the track last time I was there. Are you up.... Let me know I will be In Tallahase Sunday after that we can plan an assault....

Take care thanks for the Video
You will prolly recognize this part on the video .......

There was a nice segment in the movie "On Any Sunday" about Widowmaker, too.

(Oh man, I just dated myself, too, didn't I?!??)

Sure looks like it but hell looks like a lot of hills. Was sure fun to see though.
