It seemed like a good idea at the time . . .

. . . but it kept getting worse and worse, and you begin to think to yourself "what have I gotten myself into?"

This is one of those times: http://wimp.com/scarytrail

 

[_JOE_]

I ride for fun, that does not look like fun.

That trail must least to the fountain of youth or something?

 

[Patman]

Awesome! Looks like something Kiwi & Eddie do to get to the hard stuff.

I've ridden short runs like that and it's scary as heck but it also is a rush and gives ya' something to talk about back at the trailer.

 

[IndyMX]

If you happen to make it back..

And the thing you are talking about back at the trailer, the amount of poo in your shorts.


Yeah, I'll stick to the track, thanks.

 

[Rooster]

Uhh, yeah. I was leaning way over to the left in my chair just watching that crap. All set. Thanks. Off-camber is one thing, off your freaking rocker is another. I'm going to go get some clean underwear now.

 

[oldguy]

That is the harescrambles from our new track we are building by my place

 

[oldguy]

And I am not even going to walk it

Looks AWSOME! Any idea what country that is? Maybe Costa Rica?

What happened to a little track maintenance? I should remember this next time I snivel about a few rocks on a twenty foot wide groomed MX track! Billy goat trails. I would feel safer hiking that trail, than riding the other trail. They did not have a handy cable to prevent sliding down the mountain. I would have liked to seen them ride the trail the other way. The rear brake and putting your foot down may cause a little conflict? Nice web site name also! Vintage Bob

When did Eddy & Kiwi start speaking austrian & south american? I've been an attendee a time or two, when the pucker factor was pinned, with those two leading the way on a little "short cut".... :yikes: :bang: :ride:

 

[Vic]

Ummm......... I don't think so. :coocoo:

 

[Wolf]

It's all in what you are used to. We rode mountain bikes on trails like this all the time. Matter of fact...looks quite familiar :)

 

[IamRyan]

If you dont look down it is just like any other trail you have ever been on. At least that is what I would be telling myself the whole time.

 

[XRpredator]

. . . I was leaning way over to the left in my chair just watching that crap.

Yeah, me too. I think my sphincter finally unclenched today.

 

[Mully]

Yeah, me too. I think my sphincter finally unclenched today.

POP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[plynn41]

My ulcer started acting up just watching it. That's as close as I'll ever get!

A typical ride with Kiwi & Eddie is about 8 hours long and you cover about 20 miles at the most. Bring rope and provision to stay the night on the trail.

 

[SVTMc-G]

yeah...i'm with gary and joe here. I'll freakin pass! I'll take gnarly 90% grade hillclimbss over that ANY day!

Some of my trail gear: :)

Then there's the list of provisions..... if a guy forgets something, they've got you covered, great guys! :yikes: :cool:

 

[RM_guy]

OMG!!! I was able to translate what they were saying when they stopped to talk. Here its is..."Did you see !#@$%*@ on the $^*&%@!%#!. I almost $$#!@^ my #$%@!&!&% when the $^#@!&% on the %!@$&^! did $%^$!^@$^"

I'm convinced they recovered the video when they found finally were able to recover the guy's body. Holly crap!

+1 :laugh:

The wide angle lens they were using, makes the trail look more narrow, still a challenge of concentration, nerve & skill. Extremely low gearing helps greatly on that stuff. Where where they riding?
