Post your hard technical trails here

5 MOH this spring was fun, but my bike got so tired it spent most of it's time lying down. Here is a synopsis of the "naps" my bike took. It would have been fewer except I did NOTHING to get into physical shape AND I just got my susp back from Les (fantastic job I might add) and I had done NOTHING to dial it in for my riding style/weight/pack/etc. Enjoy. Yes you can laugh. It's funny now but wasn't very funny then. :D Good thing gassers are tough bikes (3:33 minutes)

Cool !!! I'd sub you but I already have!
 
This is a nasty section of Smiley Rock Trail at the base of Mingus Mountain across the way from Sedona, Arizona.

This was o. The last leg of a 113-mile dual sport ride, so the WR was feeling especially heavy.

I lead a ride within our main event called WDKR (We Don't Know Ride), it ends up being this type of ride of "Where is the trail" and yes this is a legal trail and yes I'm on the XR650R.

This trail is located Southwest of Saguache, CO and is on the National Forest MVUM. The most western part of the single track seems to never be ridden, its not marked well on the west side and we had to follow an electric fence someone had put up till we found the trail. It was an awesome ride/trail though.

Modette's trail

I recognize this crossing. This is between LaGarita Creek and Groundhog park, right? We did it when the crk was low and NOT raining and it beat the snot out of us even though we were riding well prepared enduro bikes. Hats off to all of you on dual sports riding harsh terrain in the RAIN. Wow.

I watched the other two videos, did anyone run out of gas? Did you come out on 160 by South Fork or Del Norte?

Good pizza in Del Norte. And great climbing in Penitente canyon.
