    Thanks Hollister Hills for cleaning up the Obstacross track

    Just a shout out to hollister hills and friends who cut the weeds in the "obstacross" rock area. I'm not sure when or who cleared it, but I've never seen it this wide open before! Most times if I want to ride this rock section, I have to bring my own saw. I was stoked to see this cleared out...

    What did you do to your dirty bike today?

    What did I do with her? I took her to dance, and sometimes we fell down... but we always got back up!

    What did you do to your dirty bike today?

    I've only been to PPines once, would love to get back (fun!). We rode hard enduro at private prop in the Santa Cruz mntns. I don't think we ever do more than 10 miles in 4-5 hours :rofl And we love it! (ok i don't love the days and days for my muscles to recover though!) Looks like this in places

    The Essential Trials Stickie

    Dang, for months I was hoping to finally get to an event, and had the 6/14 event on the radar. Then, 6 weeks went by with no mototrials riding (and other reasons). Oh well. Maybe I'll try for a July event. Congrats on the new bike Luke, looks awesome. I tried a 2018 Montesa 4T a few weeks ago...

    What did you do to your dirty bike today?

    Finally decided it is worth trying lower gearing, so i'm dropping from stock 13/50 to 12/50 (new chain and steel sprocket, too). I've gotten very used to the stock gearing since I bought the 300xc just over a year ago, but lower gearing should be a lot nicer through the stuff I seem to spend...

    That looks like an awesome place to ride! But I think you guys are doing it wrong, I mean, everyone knows the saying "keep the rubber side up" I've been trying to follow that golden rule forever: :laughing

    I finally advanced from the driveway... Kinda slippery off the pavement! Much easier to have confidence when there is grip.

    woohoo, nice yard logs! The splatter looks like fun, too. Got me motivated to search my videos for my yard splatter set-up from years ago (might be hard to see my little rock kicker). I might have to create a new one, those are fun (you really need something solid though, and preferably a nice...

    The Essential Trials Stickie

    Although it's been a few years now since i've done any trials riding (on a trials bike), my desire for trials never dies. I'm always wondering when I will finally make a proper return to the sport I love. Some fallen trees from a few months ago, and some extra time on my hands, and i'm building...

    Ridge Runners New Years Day Dual Sport Ride - 01/01/2020

    Here's the 1st part of my vid from the youtube description: Wow, what a day! The Santa Cruz, California Ridge Runners club put on a great event. My 2001 KLR650 is my only plated ride worthy of any dirt, so I rode it. This is part 1 of 3. I rode all the hardest splits (why not?) Unfortunately...

    If you're looking for someone to ride some technical stuff with at hollister give a shout, I could prob ride Sunday Would be interesting to know why they think they need the wall. Doesn't make much sense to me, but lots of things don't haha. Here's the start of the wall:

    Does anybody ever use the Trials area at Hollister? Yesterday I discovered they are building a retaining wall(?) right where it blocks the approach to one of my favorite trials sections in that area. Seems to me another misguided waste of time and resources to build this wall. Not sure what...

    Hero Dirt

    hey, I was riding some of that awesome desert dirt that same wknd yardsale. Awesome stuff. Kind of my first desert dirt ride, out very near to jawbone canyon (although my bud's who showed me around said it wasn't a true "desert ride") They all swear by the M5B tire, but I went with the shinko...
