Redspecialized and I took the bikes out to Dell Saturday afternoon. With the high winds and pulling an enclosed trail, I got 8.1 mpg roundtrip. We both got sandblasted from all of the blowing dust, rain, and sand. We dodged and hit several blowing tumble weeds. I chased a Jackrabbit for a short time. That made for one wild ride in the desert. We were the only ones crazy enough to be riding out in that weather in the area.
Glad to see you guys got out. Just another advantage of desert riding. Free sandblasting.
It was a fun trip, started raining a bit and I couldn't see a thing with the muddy gogles. Never been there before, it was a fun ride. Redfox was showing me how to get air underneath the tires at the old track out there. To bad the batts were dead in the helmet cam, would have seen some sweat footage.
And the wind, yeah it blew me off coarse a few times, but hey that'll happen every now and then.
