Thanks Nikki. I have a couple more from today I'll try to get on, or I'll just send them to you since you do such an amazing job. Those phone pics actually look better than I thought they would.
The above pics are from 12/29 on trail 16. The riding conditions changed every few miles which made for a challenging but awesome ride. Started out a little muddy but as we went higher it changed to ice then snow further up. Rode several trails then went up to see the wind mills. Gravel rode was solid ice, cold as hell, wind howling, and we were in the clouds. You can get to within 50 yards of the closest mill but we couldn't even see its base. Could hear it spinning though. The last trail we hit yesterday on the way to the truck was 22. Its was on the sunny side of the mountain and the ground had thawed. Long story short, it was sticky mud that would sling up off the fronts in clumps bigger than softballs. Had to stop several times to shovel those stock heel guards off. It piled up so much it would push my feet off the pegs. Tires even grew 3 or 4 inches in diameter. Today everthing had thawed. It was MUDDDDIEEE. First thing off the trailer I had to shovel about a 100 pounds of mud off the heal guards and fenders. Wasn't long it was back. The trails we rode yesterday were a different challenge today. I did get stuck once on a big hill. Stupid dunflops (bald at that) turned me crossways. Almost couldn't get going again. Kendas should be here tomorrow.
We had alot of fun and no one got hurt. Headed to LBL in the morning. It will take months to get that thing clean again.
