Been riding to the north and ~west a long time here ... Still got unfinished riding in Camansi but for whatever reason, I went south. Some of my previous reports were from here, maybe 2 yrs back ... I've been having a good time to the west .. My camera is eating memory cards like candy so few pics and a few videos ... -- The bike - Factory (stock) 010 TC250 - Sounds good? - This is diving off into a small valley, crossing a small creek, and then a ~gnarly climb and ride along the top of a narrow rock ridge line ... Nothing hard but there are 2 steep rock climbs of 20 feet or more ... Only 1st here ;( .. Second attempt below and I spun-it-up, not like Nagl... Rob would say get some RPMs ... View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4D3M49yNC4 That initial climb out from the small creek has a small but pretty good jump on the bottom side and a pretty cool small step-up when I went to the left of that tree and climbed to the top. Airborne on a track is cool, but not as cool in the sticks ... Here's the roll-down... Contour cam does not handle direct sunlight too well and does lots better with the light coming from behind it. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5-U8KvdioY -- This pic shows 2 trails that come out of the valley bottom and go to the top of the next ridgeline heading east ... I'll be checking this out next time and I'll have the GPS.
Here's the R.P.M attempt ... Not really a spin-up but I did make it ... View: https://youtu.be/FdB-o7dUh_w The length of that second steep section caught me off guard Did not want to explain how I screwed that section up after getting this far so I got a little ~stupid on the clutch ... -- I'm doing these climbs in 2nd gear ... manual clutch work ... RV2 ditched his off the factory ride but I like HYDRO clutches... Just a slight, even pull on it is about all it needs most times.
