wanted to ride someplace different yesterday, and realized it had been a long time since i had the jeep offroad...

two birds, meet one stone:

(and yes, this is a legit OHV USFS trail)

 

[gotdirt]

time to get some exercise

...not the smoothest climb around, but i was determined to get up top.

 

[gotdirt]

success

...it is nice to have friends that care so much; at least mitch had some blessings it would seem.

 

[gotdirt]

finally, some singletrack...

um, a bit more loose than i would like...

see this tree?

as i was starting to get a little sideways, i reached out to catch myself against said tree-
only to find out it, like paris hilton, was dead inside. tree, me, DSLR & bike get tossed off-trail:

:madman: that's what i get i suppose for not leaving something at mitch's makeshift memorial.

 

[gotdirt]

(um, i seem to have brought the wrong bike for this)

...that's the fun about exploring though i suppose, you never know what you'll find.
not the most pleasant ride, but i got quite the workout climbing anyway.

gotta stop and smell the flowers

tools of the trade

...god bless COLORADO.

Dude. Next time you need to park at the bottom, by the road. Pedal on up, 'cause the descent back down through all that stuff is sooooo worth the trip up!

The HOV trail looks like it would be fun on a bike

HOV? this ain't no carpool lane, sistah...

true dat, but the jeep needed a little TLC... gets a bit envious, methinks, shuttling the bike(s) around all the time.

Ahhhh.... Two of my favorite things in one trip. Looks good and thanks for sharing.

Nice bike and pics but heeps are gay

 

[xjbebop]

That singletrack looks a bit chunky...

What kind of step-bumper is that on the rear? Home made?
...and 34" tires??
