Who should come?? Riders already having off road experience looking to step up to the demands of riding single track trails. Ideally, a dirt oriented motorcycle like a KTM, DRZ400, WR, or XT would be the best choice. Off road EXPERTS on 650's will be OK.

Who will not like this ride? If you have little experience riding dirt roads or more technical jeep roads, you will struggle.

You will be expected to pick up your own bike, unless you are pinned under it. Everyone is expected to lend a hand to others requiring assistance.

Wildcat has a very diverse trail system. The good part, we will be riding the less rocky, less hilly trails. The bad part, these trails tend to be sandy and whooped out. Speeds will be slow and stops will be frequent.

Bait not taken!

I have been on a few of your so called "Easy Single Track" rides. I lived, but just barley......

Sorry BIG-E, Wildcat doesn't have a tot lot.

I'll probably be at the shindig but can't stay for the ride.

Big-E, why don't you head up a big bike ride for the heavy iron crowd? It would be a shame to knock the new off that 690 scrambling around goat trails.

Hey Rick,

I don't think the 690 will be ready for this Saturday....

But Soon!!

You could save a lot of typing and just tell us whether you will be bringing a rope

I always bring the rope!! It's the shovel you have to fear.

And the pruning saw!

Classic BIG-E

I actually would have attempted this "Easy Single Track" Nightstalker ride. However, wont be back in the valley until late morning. I will be heading over to Zen Moto at some point during the day though.

Always wanted to try out one of the nightstalker rides. I'm in. I suck at single track so this might be perfect.

Perfect nightstalker victim!

Just kidding. He'll take care of you. He's a great ride leader.

Sure you are....

I am not kidding.....:huh

And this was after just 16 miles!!

Good luck.

I'm in! Will make it a DS ride and ride up. Anyone else? Seabee1?

Count me in!

at least you're still upright.

love to, but the ride is at dillons' right now. with the list i gave him, i don't think it'll be ready in time! i will see you at the event, though.
gotta check on the progress, you know!

Waiting for the Report !

Yeah, where it that ride report - Terry??? Photos???

It was a good short but sweet ride. Conditions were great (not too hot as we started early) and the dust was tolerable. Nightstalker lived up to as advertized and led us on some nice singletrack, some up along the ridgeline throught a Cholla forest! 4 of us DS riders pealed off and rode down 136th to later meet up the rest of the group and many others at Dillon's grand opening even. All had a great time.
