Extreme Terrains - Riding Remote Singletrack in the High Sierras
Taking us almost to the crest of the Sierras, this destination dirt bike ride skirts the edge of a wilderness via remote singletrack and jeep roads. We were lucky enough to have Rachel join us. The route has sweeping views in all directions, flowing trails the width of my tire, alpine meadows, a lunch stop built in, and the perfect amount of technical challenges. I will be back!

Slick Rock Trail & Hard Enduro Training in the High Sierras

She was concerned it was getting dark and I was concerned about the swarms of mosquitoes. Neither of us appeared worried about the gnarly 7-mile boulder-filled trail that took 3 hours to complete, but Slick Rock Trail (open to street legal vehicles only) is relentless. The closest CA has to Moab-like riding, this trail starts at Alpine Lake by Bear Valley in the Stanislaus National Forest and w...
Riding the best of Chalk Bluff || Burlington OHV
zhlédnutí 530Před 21 dnem
A riding area that is entirely singletrack? Look no further than Chalk Bluff/Burlington OHV in the Sierra Nevada. With some techy sections and mostly blue USFS trails, our route took us clockwise on Trail 54, Trail 55, and Trail 28. We staged down in the old gold mine town of Washington, California, and then rode up 5 miles of jeep road to start. Mention Miss Trails at Rocco Racing for 10% off:...

zhlédnutí 812Před 28 dny
Went for a solo dirt bike ride high above Truckee just North of Lake Tahoe. I convinced myself the black diamond singletrack trail rating was probably just for the mountain bikes that sometimes ride here, but quickly realized that was not the case. Nothing too crazy out here except the sweeping views of the high Sierra Nevada mountains, but one needs a little bit of clutch control and staying o...

    Thanks for the vid. I always hope for wind in summer. I used to think the old timers in my club were riding with masks just because they had lung problems. It turns out, anyone can use them to prevent a lot of dirt from getting on your face and in your lungs at any age, even comm microphones pick up just fine still.

However, since this was a shorter ride with cell the entire way I just took a picture of my Google Earth route on my phone and crossed referenced it with Google Maps satellite view, which showed my dot of where I was.

      I ride alone about 95 percent of the time and actually prefer it to riding in a group. It is definitely not for some people but I love it. If you take the right precautions (Garmin InReach, food, tools etc.) and really know your limits and stay with in them it can be safe. To blindly go out and ride alone without a plan wouldn't be too smart.

      Hi Old Vet, your roughly worded statement here brought out the naysayers, so I'll capitalize on it as a good discussion starter (and to help Miss Trails algos). If you guys ask Search and Rescue Managers what they think - I'll tell you, we think you are adding more risk to a risky sport. Enjoy the ride, eliminate risk where ever you can. Never hike or ride alone in the backcountry is my advice. That won't change most minds cause I know how they think. I could tell you worse stories, of my unit's Rescues and Recoveries or the story of the two that died from my Dirt Bike club, but I'll spare you those details. Be like Old Vet, ride safe enough to sound old and cantankerous ;) . I'll bet he's coming from love and wisdom, on this advice, as I am also.

    I grew up in Ridgecrest back in the 60's and 70's. At twelve bought a used CT-70 that worked for my younger years and later a used YZ-125 that i rode the snot out of in my later teens. Later when i was about eighteen, i bought a new Yamaha XT-500 Enduro, and our family, within the year, moved from Ridgecrest to the Midwest and i have lived here ever since . Back in the 70's Wagon Wheel was a bar for all the dirt bikers; and an oasis for all the younger riders as well as we could get water and such in the middle of nowhere. Great times riding back then, even without GPS, cell phones and panic buttons we rode and explored. The only time i got lost was out beyond Wagon Wheel from Ridgecrest. I got on one of those long straight north east going gravel roads out of Wagon Wheel on my CT-70 and figured i wouldn't get lost on a old straight gravel road, right? Well ten or fifteen miles out i noticed a jack rabbit and decided to chase him a little. We crossed the road a few times and at one point the rabbit even jumped straight up and i went underneath him, he got me so turned around i couldn't remember what direction i was traveling down the gravel road. It must have been high noon because the sun was no help, i took a guess and headed out the wrong way towards Death Valley on a Honda Trail 70. I would have been in a lot of trouble if i hadn't run into another rider out there that pointed me in the right direction back to Wagon Wheel where my parents were patiently waiting with the pickup.
