We had about 17 riders today ... It was really cool as in most of the really tight places, if you were in front, you could pass through it and then sit and watch And help several of the other riders come through the section using his own style or lack of style... Gassin' up 1st creek crossing and uphill climb Down a dried up creek This guy just showed up with this snake ... I'm not sure where he came from or what he was doing ...
This family came along the path as we were stuck crossing ... takes 17 guys of various skill levels a while to cross a section like this ... Break time... Next creek and it had water!!
The 08 TXC 250 Husky! gnarly uphill The final test after we came out of the woods ... This is the transcentral hiway that crosses to the west side of the island ... The hill I'm setting on must be climbed to pass their final test ... It me 2 trys but I made it ... and twice more successful climbs after I passed ... That hill in the background has not be climbed to my knowledge ... I'll try it next time maybe One last trail back to the transcentral hiway for the ride (after dark) back down to BRGY. Talamban... That is about a 2.5' wide cement drain ditch we a staging to jump across
Please do and if they have been anywhere in the Talamban area, we might know some of the same riders ...
Love the parted together bikes and grass roots effort. Miss those days when it was more about the good time than the equipment, so simple and basic.
Yep, many here just part together what they can for a trail bike ... Most bikes are a combination of different brands (and yr models) of frames, engines, pipes, and maybe swingarms (usually longer) ... They'll even have some sort of custom(?) airbox for them ... Usually 125 to 220 CCs ... They all want the low end power on their 2T and will do work on their pipe for this RPM range ... That bike in the 3rd pic probably weights well under 200 lbs ... There is one other thing they all add to their bikes ... a disk front brake ... The rear usually is a drum but the front always gets an upgrade ... forks could be any brand .. Its really cool as sometimes we might get separated and the trail forks and I just follow the 2T smoke trail to find the right path ...
