Title: December ride
Post by: Fletch on December 18, 2011, 09:22:59 PM
A warner than usual weekend had me saying the hell with skiing and getting the bikes out. saturday was less then impressive as the Q2's on the CBR just didn't seem to hook up on the frosty roads in the hills. Better than not ridin at all, but it coulld be better. So, Sunday I decided the Adventure would be more fun. Since the Hills were icy, I headed for the praire. You take what you can get at this time of year, so I headed east on Hwy 44 to Farmingdale (aka Railroad Buttes OHV area). The trails were dry anbd traction was good so I headed East towards the Cheyenne River.

Several miles of this and I was lost
