I took the trip to the "MX track" in Pueblo. What a waste of time that was. When I arrived, I asked 2 guys about the track. They suggested I didn't ride it since it was in miserable shape. I should have loaded up at that point and gone home. Instead, I unloaded the gear, and headed over to the "track".
I am not sure which was worse, the conditions of the "track," or the people at the "track" "riding."
Things that made the track suck....Hadn't been touched by anything maintenance wise in what looked like months, maybe years. Huge piles of rotten grass clippings in 1 corner which smelled like hell. 20-40 pound rocks and beer bottles on the track itself. Hard as hell with major ruts and poholes prior to most jumps. I was convinced that I was bending my rims trying to gain enough speed to actually get some air. Additionally, there were 3-4 kids on ATV's and an Odyssey that were going to wrong way on the track. Actually they were kind of racing themselves along one of the sections of the track making their own loop. That's a real treat as you are hitting the crest of a jump and see 3 ATV's and an Odyssey racing through your landing area.
If that wasnt enough, I got to watch some freak have his buddies park their truck in the middle of the track (as I was coming around the corner no less) so that he could jump over it. The guy caught some major air, I will give him that. Instead of the usual water and gatoraid drinkers in the parking lot, these guys were hammering beer and hard liquor. One guy had more tatoos on him than safety equipment (equipment was a pair of shoes no socks, and a pair of shorts....nothing else....tatoos were at least 75 on his back chest and arms alone which is fine, just not when you are drunk on an MX track), who proceeded to wreck going around a corner scraping the hell out of his back and chest as he laughed so hard he fell down again.
I spent a total of 30 minutes riding, which was 30 too many. As HomeMadeSin said, the best thing about it is that it is free. However, I wish it was $100 an hour that way I wouldn't have wasted my time driving down to it. You get what you pay for. I drove North 45 minutes to Aztec, paid $18 to ride the rest of the day and would do so again without question. Aztec was worth every penny.
