heh heh when ya spend most of the time riding, ya don't get much of a chance to take pics!!
Tearin' up SW Washington!!!
Greg (FC_501) and I went out for a rip yesterday. Started from the Ridgefield cutoff, and drode through Battleground (the boring part)
Then we rode up SR503 to Jacks. Got stuck behind a Dump Truck for a bit, so I decided to stop and wait a little before we ripped through the 15's (a section of 15 MPH corners)
At Jacks we turned up the wick a bit to tell the natives we were there.
Filled up at Cougar, I pulled a cool wheelie as usual!! Then ran up to Merrill Lake. That road is a friggin blast!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Technical too. There is basicly NO traffic, and because of this, there are a few twigs and leaves on the road, not to mention some patches of moss!!! We ran up this canyon twice. It'a a 6 mile stretch, and the Cougar Natives really fon an ear full!!! :hammer:
Total Ride was 101.8 miles!! :bike:
Once Windy Ridge thaws out, I think we are gonna haul the bikes up to Bear Meadow, and go Sport Bike hunting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

something to drool over
from top to bottom:
the Short Lake Merrill run
Windy Ridge :thumbup:
Map Legend
We could put in at either Bear Meadow or Elk Pass

yeah, but I bet in that 35min, you crack at least 3-4 wheelies just to keep yerself sane!!
Greg and I went on a short run today. Went up past Carson on the Wind River HWY. Unloaded the bikes and poached a few runs on the single lane Forrest Service Black Top.
HOLY CRAP those roads are tight...no where to veer off if you are confronted by a cager either.
If you could gaurantee no opposing traffic, this would be IMO the best place to ride a Supermoto in SW Washington. A sport bike would eat it big time!!
Not too much carnage....except for the little Fir Tree that Greg tried to mow over with his helmet!!!!
I haven't filly uncorked on Greg yet....he is just learning, but he is starting to feel what his tires will hold, and how fast he can enter a corner.....looks like we need a trip to Pats Acres!!!
