Riding in the Cascade Mtns
Did some riding on the logging roads, and a few narrow trails that used to be mtn bike trails behind the Hyak ski area. Some of the riding was pretty wicked, one was up some steep loose dirt/rocks where we had to stay in 1st with our feet out as the trail was steep, winding, challenging but fun. I snapped a few shots, then my camera batteries went dead (figures). There was one trail we took that had a fallen tree blocking the path. We stacked a few smaller branches in front, then walked the bike over (front tire over, then ifted the back end on over. A little further down the path we ran into a fallen bridge. We ended up having to backtrack, back over the fallen tree and around on a different trail. Over-all the bike was excellent! It now has 86 clicks on the odometer and my buddy Ed riding a Honda XR200 was impressed enough that he is considering getting one (and giving his XR to his boy since it is not street legal).
I've added a couple photo's.... one is Ed checking out my bike about 1/3 into our riding.
