What happened to your windshiled?  You need to follow somebody too. Maybe a KLR so we see some rocks come at you. 3D!

Watching a video like this, makes me so happy I live in the Black Hills.  :)  Thanks for posting it Josh.

Really bummed I missed the rally this year, and seeing old friends and a chance to make new ones. Thursday afternoon, after riding singletrack all day, my WRR's stator fried itself, so bike was down for the count and down for the rally. I guess first breakdown at 18,000 miles is not too bad, I expect more from a Japanese bike though.

I'm sure all our guests had a great time and that's what matters. The Black Hills is such a fun playground.

Thanks for the photos and video. I will get some posted this evening. Nathaniel's hillclimb is the best. We had a 2 hour critique session over that video.

Forgot how to embed but here's the link to Nathaniel's hillclimb. You have to turn up the audio and listen. I also love the way you have to tilt your head 90 degrees to the left to watch the second half.

Great pics everyone! I especially like the one of Bret & Beth atop the cliff...that's a classic.

Nice video Josh, but I think there may be a problem with your encoding - it keeps skipping frames, or is it just me? If you can, you should try converting your vid to H264, seems to work much better with Utube at 1080p.

Well here's my 2 cents worth.  Some of the photos on Green Mountain I really liked.


Friday morning


Some where near Moon Country


Break Time


Our Trail Leader....gazing into the trees, thinking about new trails to lead!  I'm sure of it!


Red Bird Canyon / Jasper Burn


Accident & Repairs



Sat at Green Mountain


I liked this one too


Couldn't decide


And another


My Favorite


That's Bret taking a picture of me taking a picture of him.  You can see the other half on his post!

Thanks Yeti, Yes new rider and yes I hogged the WR this weekend. Glad Dr Psycho's brother, I forgot his name/handle, was okay. Seeing him go over and not seeing how far down it was gave me the willy's. As I rode passed and saw he was moving all 4 limbs, I knew I could find a safer to stop before going back. What a great effort by all in that situation.
