Had a great ride last Thursday night up near Snowbasin Resort. Coldwater Canyon has been a favorite lately, and now we can include the new trail Sardine Peak on the ride.

Sardine Peak trail is in great condition, but pretty dusty. I hear we'll get some rain this next week so we think we'll hit it again after the dust is settled.

Riders were

My Tracks says it's @ 9.5 miles round trip the way we went, embedded map is below.

Great ride, Nice to meet you Ryan. Cool video as usual Justin. I liked the shot of you steering a corner with your back tire. This is a good trail to improve some handling skills.

Those slides remind me of the old flat track motocycle racers from the 70's.

I checked my tire pressure tonight. I thought that I slammed the stairs pretty hard. Front tire maxis high roller was at 12 psi. I had aired down without verifying the pressure with a gauge for my ride earlier at Deer valley. Rear tire was at 8 psi. I just put 40 psi in both tires so that I am ready for the high speed cross country trails.

i went up last night and the trail was primo! no dust, sticky enough to hold on tight to your tires and no mud. Just what the trails needed!
