Re: Let's get dirty...check here for rides.
yeah, we'll see how it goes but i should have just bit the bullet and shipped them out to Steve at PlusOnePerf. he knows the early Sachs OC really well... but man i was hoping to not drop $600+ for front only... i could buy a used set of KYB SSS for about that!

Supposedly Gilles' recipe is really good for the 4cs in New England. Ben Kelly is on it and absolutely flying.
I'm gonna call CCycle in a bit and see what's what. I want to know if I had told him I was an A rider, what the difference would've been.

Re: Let's get dirty...check here for rides.
Hit up Southwick last Sunday with Tim, Tyler and a cast of characters. It was good, the day was really hot and there was no wind. At all. Had a bit of an issue with a light front-end giving me some head shake, but I think that was rider error and not getting on the gas enough.
On another note, does anyone know of any tracks or trails in or around the Stratton, VT area? I'll be out there in a few weeks for a long weekend and would love to take a bike up.

When I was at FC picking up my KTM stuff, I jokingly asked if I could take a set of 4CS forks home. The tech said, "You don't want them. We have to do a LOT to make them work". It sounds like they were replacing basically everything inside the tubes..!

Hell Ya, Great trails out there but the YZ took a beating.
Two dents in the pipe. One was so bad it bent the pipe into my coolant hose blocking the flow. Got a good deal on a Gnarly that should be here this week.
Big dent in the left rad even though I have BPD guards but managed to get that bent back into shape.
The worst part was near the end of the ride I tipped over in some rocks and landed on my tailbone. Wasn't too bad till later that night. Been nursing it ever since. I may take one more week off but itching to get back out there.

Is it close to Loudon? I'm thinking of bringing my bike to the classic and riding in the A.M. sunday.

Re: Let's get dirty...check here for rides.
It's about 20-30 min from the track. To ride it you really do want to have a NH sticker. It is occasionally patrolled.
-
Re: Let's get dirty...check here for rides.
I haz cash, can buy sticker.
-
Re: Let's get dirty...check here for rides.
Can be hard to do on Sunday.

Re: Let's get dirty...check here for rides.

Re: Let's get dirty...check here for rides.

Re: Let's get dirty...check here for rides.
What about the beanstalk?

Re: Let's get dirty...check here for rides.
It appears i burned through my outboard rear pad at the classic. Ive clearly got a caliper function issue as the inboard pad looks new still.

Re: Let's get dirty...check here for rides.
Hit Hop-Eve today. Ran the newly reversed Stark loop trail, which they were doing some grading on the last section of that trail. Hit the Sugar loop trail and what I believe was part the hang glider hill section. It was my second time there and it was a blast! I fell a half of dozen times and still managed to leave with a big smile! :D
Paul there is always Freedom cycles in Concord. They're open Saturday and it is kinda on the way to Clough.
-
Re: Let's get dirty...check here for rides.
I liked Stark way better the other way. The sand whoops with the giant berm at the end down the hill into the woods. The flowy woods section at the end. And going the long way round the rock after the long bridge. All of these features feel less run wrong-way-round.
But I'm sure I'll get over it.

Re: Let's get dirty...check here for rides.
Went to load my bike this morning and it had a flat. Blah. Not wanting to hassle i left it at home
