So the camping trip went off as planned. We went camped at Troy Overflow. PBK and his brother made it out a day earlier then me and set up camp. I made it to camp about 11 PM with no problems. Morning hit and i was all giddy and ready to 
but first things first. I had to test out my brand new chair...
as you can tell it was almost as fun as actually getting on a dirt bike. While we are at it... jsut to make CDA enjoy this RR here is a bike on a stand...
you can also see my bike in teh background using a tree as a stand. my truck was so loaded i didnt even have room for a stand in my truck...
Yes there is my sons 50 in there as well
I didnt get any pics but my wife finally took over the 80 and she said she really liked riding it. She mainly stuck to the dirt roads around camp as she has never rode before but i did take her to one of the trails i thought would be easiest for her. Not 50 yards on that trail she goes into a whoop looses balance and jumps off the bike a split second before it slamms right into a tree. she was fine as we were not going fast at all. after that she said i think i want to build more skill on the roads first... i said ok lets go back. We all rode the 80 to go to the toilet and wash our faces.. it was a great camp bike for the big boys as i dont think it could even do 25 with us on it anyway
My son absolutly LOVES his new dirt bike. So much that he would not even stop unless we told him to give it a break to cool down. even then he would stand next to it looking at things on it or sit on it and pretend he was riding it. He made himself a sweet little track that goes through the trees at our campsite...
he also gave his little sister a ride on it...
And now on to the big boy rides.. PBK his brother and I first hit up Beach Creek Trail. I had a blast. some sections are pretty rocky and a little slow but for the most part i was in love. Ive never rode anything like this before, only a track hill climbs and desert... never forest. Anyway the next trail i rode was Mahogany trail and this one had one section that was kinda tough but i just stayed on teh gas going up the hill and i got over all the rocks np. Then a little farther was one of the best views i ever seen.. of dome park area. I went back to it with my camera but the pic was all white washed out
. The funnest trail for me was the Jackass trail Lots of switchbacks not too rocky and cool bridges to ride over. We rode Jackass to albanita trail which was also fun but a little sandy in spots. Here is a vid i put together of the big boy rides. Its pieced together as it was WAY to long on each ride to post without editing... Also i got permission from RockMonster to use his band for the music so enjoy...

last but not least BIG THANK YOU goes out to Cleonard and BajaTaxi for showing us the way to this KICK ASS riding and camping spot. Without you guys i prolly wouldn't have pushed to make the 6 hour drive to go ride here.
