What a great ride, can't believe I missed it the last two years. I won't again. 1 route was so good I rode it twice. What a great group of guys, guys that are fighting for our right to ride off-road and offering new opportunities. Pictures and videos coming soon.

It was a little rocky though.

I believe this is the best two days of riding I have ever experienced.
Day 1 on the East side of ToC which included Palomas Gap, Antenna Farm on top of Brushy mountain and taking the North Exit. This was like Big Bends Black Gap on steroids All Day. Have to see if I have any good video. Huge thanks to Sander for leading!

This video is from Day 3, and I need to work on it, but it gives a glimpse of the first climb.
Note most of these guys are in their 70s, one is 77.

Y'all made it look easy but I bet the darn thing was steep.
 
Sander-you went to Passion Pie and didn't call me?! Thanks for leading group Sunday, enjoyed the challenge. I'll admit I was tired after the sand/gravel/rock wash. In the video, Woody on 2nd Beta made it look easy, 'course he was on a 500.

Wish I got the chance to ride with y'all. 1st day I went with Jack Henry and his bunch and was on the 1290. That was a challenge. Then on day 2 I went to to the antennas on the 500 and did that backwards. Had no idea what I was doing when I the I started. Sunday went out to the lake on the 1290 then headed to Odessa. This was not only a blast but so many trails you do them all in a week. I'll be back
