secret trail ride

[EigerMike]

well the dust wasnt to bad ! had a great ride and conquered the secret trail.glad scott made it up hope he had a good time! didnt take many pics conditions were not ideal and i fell enough trying to get what i did!


scott was so kind to top off all the quads with gas



i might add that wet snowy rocks are slipery

[EigerMike]

had fun got wet couldnt feel my hands but all in all a priceless day thanks guys!

[hemingray]

Wow, would not have guessed there would be that much snow. The closer this storm got, the more they upgraded it towards a winter storm. Looks like fun though - with the right gear, riding in that is kinda fun. Thanks for the pictures!

[auendave]

nice pics MIke, makes me envious, wish I could of gone, but alas that is not always possible,

It was a great ride. Everyone got free gas after I did a barrel roll down a hill and broke my gas cap on my flat pack.

[EigerMike]

we new it was going to be wet but the snow was a total surprise glad scott didnt get hurt and got some free gas win win in my book!

[Mr. Green]

glad your ok, dosent look like you did much damage to the quad or self.

Sorry couldnt make it up, and its one of your trips mike so that means you have about 80% chance of in countering snow some how..

[EigerMike]

to bad you missed it! your right about the snow i do enjoy it! your going next time !

[Mr. Green]

I was only going to be able to run around for half the day, and i admit my resolve cracked when i didnt see any stars at 5am when i was going over my quad. If i had the full day and could have done the full loop you guys wanted to do id had gone still but that bed seemed so much better if i only had half a day .

Great pics though and you got the first fresh snow ride of the season,

It's ALL about the gear Dave.

We have some dress wearers, that denying themselves of some of the best riding....cause da sun ain't shinning...LOL (right eric)

I decided that proper rain gear would be GoreTex, all that bouncing around etc. would shred the cheap PVC rainsuits. I have cold weather gear, but not much waterproofing.

I actually like the rain - at several points yesterday I pondered whether I'd like to go up and ride up FR-19, I would love to see the winds and rain up there during a storm.

We (at 2260 feet) got a whopping 6.29 inches of rain out of that storm!

As soon as someone makes a Gore-Tex dress, I'll consider riding in the rain and snow. Until then I'm staying home by the fire and sipping hot toddies while I paint my nails.

Get some Klim gear. Thats what I have for sledding. After 4 seasons I sent it back in to be "repaired" and the sent back all new gear including gloves. The only thing I didn't get replaced were the boots.

[EigerMike]

klim has some great looking stuff.they are on my wish to wish list! thats how cheap i am!
