    So this weekend looked like nasty rain. It pretty much was. looking for a place to ride we rolled the dice on an area I had not ridden in several years. Kind of more a family camp and ride area, nothing real epic as i remembered. We kinda of were on the fence about going at all feeling it was going to be wet and slick and ugly. Never stopping us befopre buddy Joe was the only taker one interested. We left late at 10:30 and headed over the hill. Nasty rain, black sky, rain gear packed. We get over the hill and the sun is pepping out as we get closer. Not 10 miles back it looked real bad. We get to the staging area and 65 and sunny ! :cheers: How lucky are we? Then proceed to find 60 miles of great trails. We were so stoked and road until 7:30 and got home at 10:00. Long but very FUN day.

    Did not have my regular cam as i figured it would be a rainy mess but fortunately did have my go pro in my pack and got some vid.

    On my 2010 TXC250 this day...

    Giddy for finding sun...

    Shes a runner all right. It does have a bit of a stumble and hesitation right off idle. the ECU is going to the dealer today for a reflash and reported much better running, will report.

    Kelly,

    I can't talk for the rest of the MT guys but I just took my first full 2 days off since early march. Probably be that long again until I get another 2 day weekend and 2 days just isn't enough to drive 600 miles one way, 350 miles was pushing it but well worth it. Maybe Myron can make it out with Chris and some others. He needs to get away and just ride for 3 days or so.
