Why don't you guys just join Jennifer (my wife), my friends Belinda and Mick and me to the Training Wheels Enduro on November 3rd? It is our first Enduro and it's supposed to be easy.

Who want's to join the BARF enduro team?

Jnglst~Dirt riding at Thill should count providing you stayed on two wheels.:teeth

JeebusX~No the Doc (my wife:teeth) has not yet cleared me for dirt riding. A guy at work just broke his hand so my head honcho at work asked me and one other co worker to stay off our dirtbikes for a month or so...he was jokin of course:laughing..I think:wow

JoeBar~Its just too soon as far as my leg goes to do the Enduro. Thanks for the offer though, and have a blast!

I thought about getting a dirtbike, but I've already got three street bikes and there's no more room in my garage for more bikes :laughing

Well... that and the whole "Spend $5000 on dirtbike and stuff and use it maybe once a month". Bleh. Can you rent dirtbikes? :laughing

ATK 406. Great beginner bike. Heh heh.

We're going to Clear Creek this Fri, Sat and Sun. It will be too dry, but we've got a dozen guys with alcohol, tabacco and firearms. And motorcycles. Clear Creek rocks, but the best is

Stoneyford
then Clearcreek
Cow Mtn
Hollister
Metcalf sucks, except for maybe the snake trails...

I'm shredy!!
Hollister is "ok", metcalf is lame but good for beginners since it as all those one way trails (don't have to worry about head-ons). It's all about Cow Mountain, CDC Camp(Elk Mountain/Deer Creek) and Stoneyford!!

Anyone ride at Clubmoto? I've been itching to ride their new supercross track :devil

I agree on all the OHV "parks" I would rather drive another hour and have miles and miles of trails with no people on them. Hollister is good for beginners though, Metcalf a waste of getting packed and loaded unless you live really really close, and Carnegie is downright dangerous with all the idiots.

The Stonyford/Middle Creek areas are the best for varied skills, they have miles and miles of fire roads, PLUS miles of singletrack, so everyone can be happy. Georgetown and Elkins Flat are fun too and really varied.

Kevin and I are heading up to Stonyford this weekend (12-13th) with a group of people, and camping in a place with trees and a nice stream running through it. Anyone else is always welcome to join us anytime :)

Of the OHV parks, Carnegie is my favorite because of all the hillclimbs and technical terrain. I have yet to have any problem with the aforementioned "idiots". Hollister, IMO, is too developed. All the street signs, one-way trails, etc. make me feel more like I'm commuting to work than riding a dirt bike. My favorite of all is Clear Creek, but I can't justify driving the extra distance just for one day of riding, so I usually end up riding Carnegie unless I'm camping overnight.

Then it counts!! lol I didnt dump!! :twofinger
Considering that you rode on an asphalt and dirt on street tires, you qualify for SuperMotard!!! You just need to practice the jumps now ;) :teeth

Darnit, if I knew there were so many dirtbikers on BARF, I never woulda sold my YZF 250. Well, maybe if I find something cheap I can join you guys this winter. :cool

I could potentially go on saturday..
im a no go for sunday..
as i have other plans.

metcalf is close.. really close.
and good for beginners.

hollister is acceptable.. but i need to be motivated to drive down there.

carnegie is too easy to get lost. Ive been there and didnt really enjoy it there.. wide open spaces are fun.. but not when you are learning. the fact that barely any trails are marked means you definately want to make sure you areoff the hill before it starts getting dark. we got lost up there and in finding our way down we found a nice tril which ended in a sheer dropoff..
the thought of almost dying riding off a cliff doesnt appeal to me.

ill go back to carnegie some day.. but it wont be soon.
