Alaska May 7th trail riding

Postby Beizo86 » Sun May 08, 2011 9:49 pm

It was a fun ride, for like the first ride of the year on dirt, rather then snow and ice! I didnt realy get to many pictures. Some of our favorite trails where still covered in a little bit of water, but other then that it was a fun trip, we where only riding for 4 or 5 hours. So short trip this time, but next weekend ill post some more picks, we plan on heading out to the pipe line!

Nice! Zowie, a *little bit* of water? If that's just a little bit, I'd hate to see what you consider to be a lot of water! :lol:

What were the temps like?

that's cool hard to belive grizzly guys quads I think are still barried and the best riding areas in Northern Ca. are still under snow but not for long I''m sure.

Keep the Pics comming

The temperature was in the mid 40's so it was nice! The temps are a lot diffrent then the lower 48. When its 40's here, it like 70's in Georgia where i used to live before. But its going to be in the mid 50's this weeekend, so it will be a lot better! Also when you spend all winter in the -40's and -30's you wear shorts when its 25 or so! :lol:

Always fun to see where folks ride - thanks for grabbing some shots! It's hard to take pix when you want to ride, eh? :-)
