Another good one Howard! BTW, I think people are watching, we're just not used to talking back to our regularTV programs. Keep 'em rolling, I need my fix! :cheers:

It's a bit of a blur, but I think it was somewhere around the end of your last video where I looked at my GPS and thought: "We've only come this far!?!"

If I lived closer, I'd ride that trail every month. :thumbsup:

I'm waiting for Part 4 of the video. Something tells me it is a little extra special section. :smirk:

Also enjoying the videos. I remember much of that after riding it this spring with Rod but as always the memory fades. I'm with Dirtyboy and looking forward to the next nasty.

I'm not sure I want to ride this trail in the heat. I think the damp weather firms up the sand and may make some of the stuff easier (if not just plain cooler). Rod and I experienced rain, sleet and snow the day we rode it. Good fun!

Fantastic stuff - I was an oil-field brat on the western slope of the US Rockies through the 1950's (I really am "anotheroldtrailrider"), and lived in Moab for about a year - that's where I learned to drive my Dad's jeep, and graduated from my Triumph Cub to a T500. In those days, there were absolutely no rules - if you could get a bike there - OK, if not - well, that was OK, too.

I haven't been back in 15 years, but would love to go - maybe on my way back to Oklahoma this fall?? Anyone interested in a trip next October?
