Hey Nick, The trails in Foresthill are very nice and usually well maintained. One of the loops (loop 6?) is pretty gnarly and wouldn't be too much fun on a big...
I posted this email at the group page and it was rejected because it might have a virus. Huh! ... Thanks for the photos of the last ride. Lets me at least be...

Nick, The trails are great and marked with signs like you would see if snow skiing, I stay away from the Black Diamond with my XR650L. When we went there we...

Thanks Terry for the recommendation!!! We did this ride in reverse today and it was every bit as magical as described. The weather couldn't be better with...
I would rate this as a 1 or 2 in difficulty with 5 being most difficult. Super easy on a DRZ 400 - on a GS you just need to go a little slower in places. But...
