Title: Riding at the Ridge - 03NOV18 @9:30
Post by: bblass on November 02, 2018, 09:56:25 AM
Late notice but a few of us are riding at the ridge tomorrow. Looking like we'll have enough folks to split off into fast & slow groups.

My plan is to ride all of the double track at a relaxed pace and hit some of the easier single track.

Big bike and newbie friendly ride. I'll be on the ancient KTM 200 pulled behind the black SUV

I'll be there on my 200 also...fat, slow guy on a slim, fast woods bike.

That KLR was pressuring the little bikes to pick up the pace. Great day of riding no pics or videos from this time

Had a really good time riding with everyone.  Lots of slick mud made for some sketchy riding at times but nobody crashed hard or got hurt.

Since I sold the CRF250 the double track and wider trails suits the DR650 (and me) much better.

We should do it again some day.

I am glad you guys had a good time.  I hope there is another ride like this soon (maybe with a little more notice )

I had an equipment failure a half mile into the ride and had to cut my day short. Itching to get back out there. How's Sunday, November 11th look?
