[QUOTE="Smit-Dog, post: 1419455, member: 25436"] Thank you Sandstormers for organizing, hosting, and guiding us on some of the greatest terrain I've ever ridden. What a whole different experience compared to racing an enduro.... I almost forgot what a great time a trail ride can be (given the right terrain and riding group.... this is NOT your downstate flat, wide, and sandy ORV trail!). The riding on Saturday ranks right near the top as one of the most personally satisfying riding experiences ever. It was the perfect mix of challenging terrain and balls-out damn fun riding! Where else can you ride Loose Moose trail with experienced guides, an 8x national enduro champion helping you pick lines up gnarly rock faces, AND club members positioned near the top to help you and your bike up should you not find the right line (or throttle control). The ride stretched my limits, boosted my confidence as to what I could ride, and by the end of the day I was eagerly eating up as much as that mountain as I could (ultimately too eager?). Burleson, in his early 60's, still rides like an amp'ed up 25 year old. Following him as he slithered and danced through the rocky singletrack was pure joy. He'd fall back, make sure all riders in the group were doing fine, then zip and bounce back up near the front through hidden lines only his mind must see. A rider mentioned his front end wasn’t behaving like he wanted… Next thing you know DB is down on the ground adjusting this guy’s suspension. Magoo, our lead guide, gave us a great tour of the WeWe Hills (makes some riders go “Wee wee wee all the way home!), and we covered nearly 20 miles snaking through, up, in, down, and out that playground they call the Mountain. After riding this weekend, I can honestly say “Bring It” Mister Loose Moose, whereas riding the Mountain in 2010 I thought I might very well die up there. What a change in perspective a simple trail ride can bring. By all accounts the club is planning for a 2nd annual in the fall of 2012. Remember – This is private land, and only through the grace of a Yooper God is it available for us to ride. It could be gone tomorrow. Regardless, I have the riding memories for life. :cool: [/QUOTE]
