[QUOTE="bajataxi, post: 44397, member: 325"] I stole the thread title from big dan.....but it is something that's on my mind today. Getting ready to takeoff to Moab this week, been watching youtube videos of the trails up there, WOW!:shocked: I got back into riding almost 6 years ago. I have never raced, but would guess I am a C level rider? Started out 6 years ago with a 250, riding close to the truck, maybe 20 miles out in the desert is all I would go. Found the mountains, loved it and started riding further. Realized I shouldn't ride alone on some of the trails so I started meeting people to ride with. Now I'm going to Moab to meet a guy who runs a bike rental/guided tours biz to talk about starting a bike biz in Costa Rica...:banana: I've told him I would love to ride with him, but exposure is (one of) my weakness(es). His buddies will be there too, they're talking about epic rides, lowering bikes down waterfalls with ropes, carrying 2+ gallons of extra gas, lights needed for the return...... I know that the way to be a better rider is to push yourself to try new things, but I also want to come home alive and well! Maybe it won't be as bad once I'm on my bike, but I got nervous watching some of these vids; [media=youtube]T1VkRdef3Y4&feature=related[/media] [media=youtube]JJUxHLviCH4&feature=related[/media] [media=youtube]v4oK4SII-MY[/media] Anyone done some of the harder trails there? Easier than they look?:rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
