AF Canyon - Ridge 157 to Tibble Fork
This is one of the best trails in the state...PERIOD. Excellent downhill and some nice climbs to make you earn it. The trail is in great condition and you can tell it has been maintained very well this year. I do think it is a few points easier on the technical scale. It seems that there have been several rocks removed and a few sections of the trail smoothed out. The bonus is that it really makes the trail flow much nicer, but it does mellow out some of the white knuckle technical sections. All things considered this trail is still a 10 in my book.
We did have a few crashes too. A couple minor and a major. I'll let the boys tell about those.
You can see the crew in my shades.
All but two are from the bogley crew. One guy was whipping his wife and dog.
I am still confused.

I am still a little sore from my crash. Endos are so much fun. Sadly I threw away my ripped shorts.
So, Kid, you think you got what it takes to be a Punch King?

Sign: Motorcycles yield to all, bikes yield to horse riders, horse riders yield to nothing. We did run into two horse riders on this trail last night. They were off the trail when I passed them on one of the climbs.
Most of this trail is still white knuckle for me. I need more exposure to this one. Too far away and that traffic going south sucks!

Dang, now I really wish I could have gone- sweet video!
Twasn't me that smoothed out some of the roughness. Tibble isn't one of my trail adoptions so I never work on it.
You should plan on another ride down here and I'll take you down the newly rerouted, 7 mile downhill run of Mill Canyon (in AF Canyon). You can shuttle right to the top but it takes longer to get to.Are we there yet?

The rushhour drive down there is pretty horrible. We need a Bogley helichopter.
The ride seemed so much easier for me this time, especially the ups. I would like to run it more often so I could take advantage of it a little better. As for my embarrassingly pathetic crash... How did I get gear teeth gashes on my left ankle after a small endo that left me standing over my bike?Outside is the best side
