[QUOTE="Farmer John, post: 527530, member: 17587"] Well, I was there. I am glad to hear that you guys were able to hook up & ride. I have ridden all over the western United States, & I firmly believe The Creek is at the top of the list of places to ride. I rolled into the canyon around 7:00 & decided I would park in the back of Jade Mill and go on a quick recon ride into a canyon that I have been considering for the '04 Boar, then come back & be at Oak Flat around 9:00. Everyting was going right on schedule until I got caught in a bush. Literally. As I was following my new "alternate" route into Larious canyon I flipped myself & the mighty 440 off the side of the mountian. I landed in a nice Manzanita bush. I was stuck. I was approx 3 feet off the ground & could not move. I had parts of bush through all my gear, chest protector, pants, & a branch up the back of my helmet. Fortunatly I had my folding saw. After about 20 minutes I could put my feet on the ground, now all I had to do is get out of the bush, find my bike & figure out how to get out. ;) It took me another 20-30 minutes to get out of the center of the bush & find my bike. Took awhile to get the bike upright. Thank god for gas tank check valves!! Once the 440 was all in order I took off most of my gear cleaned as much manzanita out of my clothes as possible & started exploring for the easiest rout to get me & the 440 out. I ended up only having to cut 4 or 5 bushes to make a nice side hill trail back to the trail that I had augered off of. By this time I am slightly pissed & very tired. Hike/climb back to the bike, Suit up & head out my little "path". Okay, I was now out of my little detour, but still had the rest of Larious Canyon to deal with. I got back to the truck around 1 in the afternoon. I had traveled 12 miles, missed meeting up with some good DRN members, had a crushed pipe, broken chest protector, no helmet visor, & still did not know of a "C" friendly way in & out of the canyon. :ugg: I loaded up, placed my tail firmly between my legs & went home.
