Definitely a hard core long distance rider 🤣
The original plans was primrory arch, v-notch, triple arch cave and eat at the pizza spot but everyone started backing out before Saturday. I told the popo dude we could still go do that or do a Marathon ride. His woman chose marathon.

Well of course. She probably gets all the 90 second rides she can stand at home. 🤷‍♂️🤣

Hey @TripleB it looks like you guys rode threw Wartburg.
You have street plates or just hammer down?
I heard the local police are not so friendly with SxS in there town.
Good question, that's always been my hold back.

I passed at least 5 local cops. Drove right by the police station and they just waved at me. Followed 1 cop through town to the gas station where I got gas. I'm not saying that's the norm but that's how it went for me. Maybe they heard how cool and sexy TripleB is?

Same thing when I went in July. 2 local cops and nothing. 1 cop was running radar where we had to turn. My buddy was on a 4 wheeler with no helmet on and they just let us pass right on by. I was sure he was getting a ticket. I would only be worried about the state troopers.

For the video guys - Radical Hill, Colorado, up and back down. (upper half)


Commentary for those who'd like some details -
So after a few weeks of gathering my wits after my first ride up Radical Hill and the 10 mile detour to avoid going back down it, my JFDI outlook found its way back and I headed up Monday.

POIs -
at the start - hold tight left to keep the lean angle from dragging the roll bar against that bank. The inclinometer takes a while to sync so you don't get to see how steep that loose rocky uphill leading up to it is.

44 seconds - the rock ledge I cleared on the first attempt, last year. It took several bumps to get over it this time.

3:40 - I get wedged in a tight spot

7:50 - a challenging rocky ledge section

10:50 - the scariest section of the video, the tilt angle was freaky :oops:

12:45 to 15:30 - it's a steep climb to the top - To the moon, Alice

17:30 - a steep descent on a narrow ledge just for my friend Bob who's terrified of heights. :p

23:00 - I stopped to photo the Talon hitting 8,000 miles and all 3 photos are blurry. :(

27:25 - going down a rocky section that gave me trouble going up

30:40 - I drag down the ledge that gave me trouble going up
