Endurocross Testing

[yamafitter]

I was helping out at the MotoMotion Cross Country this weekend and we needed a volunteer to see if the Pro line we had setup was too tough.

Finally I found someone else stupid enough to try this .....

This section seems just about right to me.

This section seems just about right to me.

Seems about perfect. Bowmanville Romaniacs?

You would've got a chuckle at me today. Figure I'd take the new bike down the old trail about 200 feet from my house. First mod will be some bark busters. Busting through the saplings smarts. Over a downed tree (sounds awesome, you coulda rode an fjr over it) then down the little hill to the creek. Ya. It got interesting. The grass is about a foot tall. It's growing in foot deep quad tracks from the spring rains. The entire trail is for about a quarter mile is like that.

Apparently I haven't forgotten how to ride a bike sideways. The front wheel on top, the bottom clawing trying to get out of the ruts. Sent you and Tom an email on FB. Putting together a trail ride on the Park2Park trail in 2 weeks.

Whenever I get the front wheel in one rut and the rear wheel in another rut it rarely ends well.
