And, when it fell did it make a noise?

BTW, up here in the Northern part of Oreeegon we call that "trail" a nice road!

Where are the steep ruts, roots, rocks and wet clay with a small stream running down it?

That reminds me of my first log... My two buddies got hung up like that (the log was maybe 2 feet high), so I wheelied over the log with wide open throttle. I cleared the log fine, but didn't look ahead and I got knocked off the bike by a branch. No wonder my riding buddies were going at the log so slowly...


Nice attempt, I doubt I could have cleared that log either.

Auto clutch, auto smutch....what nonsence. A real man would lay the bike down flat at about 5 MPH, then flatten himself out like a limbo stick and slide that mutha under the log. Heck, with that wet turf it's practically setup for that. The trick is to lay the right side down so's you can feather the manual clutch to get maximum traction from the side knobs; an auto clutch would think you're in neutral and give up, leaving you stuck like a four-pound beef enchilada in a couch potatoe's colon. Very sad indeed.

Re: 'we call that "trail" a nice road! '

He didn't say it was a trail. It IS a road. A newly bladed road as a matter of fact.


Re: '...then flatten himself out like a limbo stick..'

I think he meant, 'then flatten himself out like a gumbystick..'.

Re: 'so close did you stay on the bike'

Not that I can see in the pic.

I was there. I saw the whole thing!! What Wibby didn't say is the direction the bike is pointing is NOT the direction he was GOing!

How 'bout THAT!?

:hmm: After seeing the same corners/turns about a dozenty times (1/2 way through the video), I changed channels. Is that 'track' more'n 1/4 mile long? Or...did the camera guy have only a 50' extension cord?

...did something good happen at the end?
