@RedSpecialized and I got out today with another friend. We had a great day riding two loops. It was challenging and boy could I smell clutch when @RedSpecialized was finished with uphill climbs. :haha:

Looks like a ton of fun. :2thumbs:
Makes me want to spoon on a 604 and head on up that way.
Nice picts.
In terms of challenge, how did this trail compare with the Ben lomond ride that we went on earlier ?
Hmmmm. Our first loop had some tough sections. I'd rate some of it 8 on a 10 scale. BL had a 9 section, just those switchbacks though as I recall. I'd say overall they are pretty similar, but BL is tougher on that switchback section. Yet AF has some pretty technical stuff too. Steep climbs over soccer ball sized rocks. Ask Ben about that...Quote:

I think Scott might be confused with onther ride he did before, I'm sure they were all 10's or higher. At least that is what it seemded like to me. I appreciate scott letting me tag along and having the patience to wait for my slow behind. It was a fun day forme though and I did get the clutch smoking a few times. Just glad Scott didn't post all the pics he took.Quote:

Seems to me there was a very washed out trail with 2 or 3 small water crossings that might be this one but I just don't know.
It comes off the 157 at Rock Spring and runs around the East Side of Mill Canyon Peak. Its a blast!! In a masochistic sort of way.:crazy:Quote:

Very rough with lots of technical sections. It's the gift that keeps on giving. :thumbup:Quote:

Do you think I can make it through it?
That's your call. It's as hard as anything I've ever done.Quote:

Hmm sounds tricky to me.
:lol8:
Maybe when I can ride the Ben lomond switch backs without dabbing a foot than I will be ready for #38 .:haha:
