RiderX Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 (edited) i really needed to get out and away for a while so on saturday i hit the trails just me and my bike up the 3rd tallest mountain utah unfortuantly i failed to make it to the summit because of a lack of fuel but i got damn close at aprox 11,300 ft with the summit being 12,200 part1 starts off slow but picks up and ends at aprox 10kft , part 2 starts right weere 1 ended and continues up to aprox 11kft and back down into the canyon volume is low so if u watch ull have to crank up the sound still need to upload parts 3-4-5-6 each part takes roughly 18 hours to upload Edited October 2, 2017 by RiderX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldMarine Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 You need to come down to 700ft ASL and ride some Tennessee hills. The greenery would do you well. I couldn't live where green is a rare color and grays are the norm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiderX Posted October 8, 2017 Author Share Posted October 8, 2017 I'd love to put my old Yoda on those trails!one nice thing about town here is we have hundreds of miles of trails if all different skill levels and terrain , not to mention i could actually ride from here to las vegas ( 246) miles or so without every touching pavement the video from yesterday is one of the expert trails , the video just doesnt show how steep that stuff really is , theres a few sections were u can kinda tell though , when i get my better camera it shows elv . grade , speed gps etc etc , ill have to go back up there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiderX Posted October 9, 2017 Author Share Posted October 9, 2017 I've rolled my Yoda several times and laughed the whole way through.that remind me of 2 crashes i had , first one was about 5 years ago , hadn,t been on a bike since i was kid , me my best friend and another friend went out for a ride , and on the way back my best friend wanted to stop at this really steep hill and climb it , hes on a 450f and he used alot of throttle to get up the hill , so i decide ill go next , mind u im on an xr200r with all of its 12 hp , put it in second gear and went wot, made it about halfway and flipped it , head hit a rock and i was out cold. soon as i woke up i knew what happened , and started laughing , me while my 2 buddies are standing over me like wtf then another one was me avoiding a ford f-350 super duty over a bilnd hill , a avoided the truck and went intot he ditch with front and rear brakes locked up , broke a few fingers but nothing serious , buddy turns around and comes back to see if im alright and as he walks up im laughing again. that truck one i actually have recorded ill have to throw it on youtube and post it. unfortunatly we had the camera on my buddies helmet he was looking back as i avoided the truck but u dont get to see me actually crash , once he gets his bike stopped and turned around im still laying in the spot were i crashed witht he bike ontop of me i always tell everyone ur normally ahving a blast right up until the point u crash , most ppl dont crash when there not having fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
