  1. I rode my buddies 500xcw last week with roached mousse is front. Front end felt very unpredictable. Like a normal tire with 5lbs of pressure. Wanted to knife in a lot. I bet when mouses are bad the tire folds like u have a flat as soon as u lean the bike over. Felt just like that He's getting new mouses and tire on front soon so we're leaving suspension alone until we can get an honest assessment.
  2. Ive ridden saboba a few times - over the AM start no matter how early u get there - Berto we should all go up around 9 AM and ride the 2nd loop - its a much more technical trail with 90% less people - we will be some of the first to go - The organizers have no idea who rode the first - I dont think they even care at that point in the day - u just find the entrence and go - If we finish the 2nd and have some juice left - we can do loop 1 - The 2nd loop a few yrs ago was EPIC and well worth it. way better then the mayhem on the first loop
  3. Gotta give my 2 cent since I was excited for this race and it was my first VCMC West chec enduro. . If u would enjoy racing on quad trials this race was amazing. If u enjoy being passed by racer guy on the transfer sections right when u were out of the dust ... This race was fun. If u enjoy time trial down a straight whooped out sand road it was awesome. If u think its a good idea to run a time trial over the same exact trail twice, u would have had a great time. And if u enjoy riding the exact same section of amazing silt road every loop then it was perfect for you. I on the other hand think I will skip the next VCMC west chec "enduro"

    KTM 990 Adventure Baja Edition

    Went to the KTM ADV rally in steamboat springs last month and had the opportunity to ride the 990 baja and 1190 adv back to back. I personally would rather have the 990 - It just felt so smooth and perfect from the get go - After 10 min on the 1190 ADV #1 my legs were hot ( The engine pumps out heat right against your legs ) #2 The bars were buzzy through out the entire RPM range. #3 if your over 6 Ft tall your will not be comfortable for very long ( Seat to peg is very short for ADV bike ) #4 You can tell this is a sport bike motor ( not much form 2-5K then it really comes on strong ) we rode then in the " full power MAP " - Not sure how many people need 150 hp off road. The 990 felt way smoother - WAY less vibes through bars and very comfortable for all day riding. Funny thing was after talking to fellow riders at dinner and breakfest, that seemed to be a common opinion of the new 1190. If you have a 990 dont jump ship untill you ride the new 1190 longer then 10 min.

    Anderson Truck Trail

    I have come across MTN bike riders on this trail and have stopped to talk to may of them - All good vibes so far - Pay attenetion as they haul the mail coming down - LOOK WAY AHEAD and pull over for them - I wouldnt even think of riding this on weekends - you can get an idea of how many people are out by the number of cars under bridge - tread lightly and dont hammer their jumps or cut corners- Im thinking of doing more of this at night with my new BD squadron LED.
